the bike ride - cary swinney lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
i took my bike out for a ride on the lower southeast side
where a young man should not ride or come a*goin’
the bluebonnets were in bloom on a texas afternoon
a mockingbird sang out a tune for those who’ll listen
people sleepin’ in the streets of downtown dallas
amidst the sound of sunday’s church bell afternoon
and i wonder sometimes when they might come to their minds
and a revolution shall ensue
i’m bettin’ that a bl**dy revolution shall ensue

[verse 2]
the propaganda just appears in some tv ad for beer
but it does not show the fear that we are hiding
another touchdown from a run, another helmet comes undone
to show the world our toothless gums and two gold earrings
was nothing truly learned from martin luther king?
i guess all that civil rights stuff was a dream
now our new prisons grow more full with angry citizens
and the rest of us are numbers in the game
i guess the rest of us are numbers in the game

[guitar solo]

[verse 3]
it’s so hard to define what is yours and what is mine
for with these nationalistic minds we’re surely crippled
we’re spoon*fed through our tvs where our so*called enemies
are pointed out to you and me like answered riddles
is it no mystery to anyone that they’re lying?
even the old men down at the pool hall say that’s true
and i wonder sometimes when they might come to their minds
and a revolution shall ensue
i’m bettin’ that a bl**dy revolution shall ensue
