Summer of '68

Johnny got drafted to Vietnam
To fight in the rock and roll war
He came home on a long summer train
Never knew what he was dyin' for
Just another lesson that the world learned a little too late
That's just the way it was in the summer of '68

Martin got shot down in Memphis
And the world went a little insane
Angry people out in the streets
And the cities were all up in flames
Just another sacrifice to prejudice, evil and hate
But that's just the way it was in the summer of '68

The flower generation thought that they could change the world
They got lost somewhere along the way
You can't change the world if you don't face reality
Turnin' on and droppin' out just ain't what life is all about

Some folks burned their draft cards
And some folks broke the rules
And some folks blew their minds so bad
They couldn't even concentrate
But that's just the way it was in the summer of '68

The world just keeps on spinnin' and the years keep rushin' by
Evil never takes a holiday
Winds of war keep blowin'
And the Left still hates the Right
Things are really gettin' crazy
Save the whales and kill the babies

The sun was shining and the sky was blue
On that bright September day
When death came in on silver wings
Things wouldn't ever be the same
Just another sacrifice to prejudice, evil and hate
And that's just the way it was in the summer of '68

In the summer of '68
In the summer of '68
