| Won’t Bow Down
Bill Maruca © 2006 We won’t bow down to no ragin’ river We won’t bow down to no driving rain We won’t bow down to no busted levee We won’t bow down to no hurricane We won’t bow down to no dirty water Won’t bow down to no rising tide Won’t bow down to no politicians They might run, but they got no place to hide We won’t bow down, this is sacred ground Won’t bow down, we won’t turn around We won’t turn our back on the Crescent City We won’t give up, and we won’t bow down. Won't bow down to the gale winds blowin' Won't bow down to the threatening skies Won't bow down to no bulldozers Won't bow down to the government lies We won’t bow down, this is sacred ground Won’t bow down, we won’t turn around We won’t turn our back on the Crescent City We won’t give up, and we won’t bow down. We won’t bow down to no dirty water Won’t bow down to no rising tide Won’t bow down to no politicians They might run, but they got no place to hide We won’t bow down to no ragin’ river We won’t bow down to no driving rain We won’t bow down to no busted levee We won’t bow down to no hurricane (repeat) Wont bow down, won’t turn around… |
