Where are you now
Broken up or still around
The CIA says you're a guilty man
Will we see the likes of you again

Can anyone make a difference any more
Can anyone write a protest song
Pinky lefty revolutionary
Burned at the stake for

A voice so pure
A vision so clear
I've gotta learn to live like you
Learn to sing like you
Oo a ooa ooa oo
Oo a ooa ooa oo

Went to Cuba to meet Castro
Never got past sleepy Moscow
A giant man with a heavenly voice
MK Ultra turned you paranoid

No passport 'til 1958
McCarthy poisoned through with hate
Liberty lost still buried today
Beneath the lie of the USA

A voice so pure
A vision so clear
I've gotta learn to live like you
Learn to sing like you
Oo a ooa ooa oo
Oo a ooa ooa oo

Aaaa ahhhh
Aaaa ahhhh

Aaaa ahhhh
Aaaa ahhhh

A voice so pure
A vision so clear
I've gotta learn to live like you
Learn to sing like you
Oo a ooa ooa oo
Oo a ooa ooa oo

Sing it loud
Sing it proud
I will be heard
I will be found
Sing it loud
Sing it proud
I will be heard
I will be found
