John Brown
John Brown killed five slaveholders by the Pottawatomie creek
John Brown killed five slaveholders by the Pottawatomie creek
Cut them down with his swift sword
But he let their slaves go free
Good people of Missouri thought John Brown was insane
Good people of Missouri thought John Brown was insane
Meanwhile in their backyard
They had human beings in chains
John Brown rose up early in the morning
Before the sun could rise
He had 200 rifles riding by his side
He said now, "Don't you weep now, Mary, don't you weep for me
Going down to Harpers Ferry, raid the US Armory"
Give the guns (to the people)
Give the power (to the people)
Give the freedom (to the people)
Give the right (to the people)
Going to rise up (with the people)
Going to march (with the people)
Going to fight (for the people)
Liberate (all the people)
Freedom now (freedom now)
Freedom now (freedom now)
Freedom now (freedom now)
Freedom now (freedom now)
Oh, Kansas bloody Kansas, what lies buried in thy name?
How much more blood must be shed before we wash away the shame?
Oh, someone tell me how long, how long must we endure this sacrifice?
Oh, Kansas bloody Kansas, tell me when will it suffice?
John Brown, they hung him and they laid him in his grave
John Brown, they hung him and they laid him in his grave
John Brown's body lies a moulderin'
But his spirit walks today
Give the guns (to the people)
Give the power (to the people)
Give the freedom (to the people)
Give the right (to the people)
Going to rise up (with the people)
Going to march (with the people)
Going to fight (for the people)
Liberate (all the people)
Freedom now (freedom now)
Freedom now (freedom now)
Freedom now (freedom now)
Freedom now (freedom now)
Freedom now (freedom now)
Freedom now (freedom now)
Freedom now (freedom now)
Freedom now (freedom now)
Give the guns (to the people)
Give the power (to the people)
Give the freedom (to the people)
Give the right (to the people)
Going to rise up (with the people)
Going to march (with the people)
Going to fight (for the people)
Liberate (all the people)
Freedom now (freedom now)
Freedom now (freedom now)
Freedom now (freedom now)
Freedom now, freedom (freedom now)
Freedom now (freedom now)
Freedom now (freedom now)
Freedom (freedom now)
Freedom
Freedom now

Freedom, freedom, freedom now
