Fiddle and the Drum
And so once again,
My dear Johnny, my dear friend,
And so once again you are fighting us all,
And when I ask you why
You raise your sticks and cry, and I fall,
Oh, my friend,
How did you come?
To trade the fiddle for the drum
You say I have turned,
Like the enemies you've earned,
But i can remember,
All the good things you are
And so I ask you please,
Can i help you find the peace and the star?,
Oh, my friend,
What time is this?
To trade the handshake for the fist
And so once again,
Oh, America my friend,
And so once again
You are fighting us all,
And when we ask you why,
You raise your sticks and cry and we fall,
Oh, my friend
How did you come,
To trade the fiddle for the drum
You say we have turned,
Like the enemies you've earned
But we can remember,
All the good things you are,
And so we ask you please,
Can we help you find the peace and the star?
Oh my friend,
We have all come,
To fear the beating of your drum.
My dear Johnny, my dear friend,
And so once again you are fighting us all,
And when I ask you why
You raise your sticks and cry, and I fall,
Oh, my friend,
How did you come?
To trade the fiddle for the drum
You say I have turned,
Like the enemies you've earned,
But i can remember,
All the good things you are
And so I ask you please,
Can i help you find the peace and the star?,
Oh, my friend,
What time is this?
To trade the handshake for the fist
And so once again,
Oh, America my friend,
And so once again
You are fighting us all,
And when we ask you why,
You raise your sticks and cry and we fall,
Oh, my friend
How did you come,
To trade the fiddle for the drum
You say we have turned,
Like the enemies you've earned
But we can remember,
All the good things you are,
And so we ask you please,
Can we help you find the peace and the star?
Oh my friend,
We have all come,
To fear the beating of your drum.
