Evan Greer - Rogues of Ferry Beach lyrics

You can outlaw love and rage You can paint those cities white You can watch us all the day But you can't see us at night! Hey! we'll be clawing at the walls Just beyond your reach Laughing as your kingdom falls Three rogues of ferry beach Three rogues a runnin' from the twisted red and blue White paint beneath their fingernails Black tar beneath their shoes Copper you can't catch us now We're safely underground And we'll be back tomorrow to un-paint the whole town! C plays the wooden keys and i the wooden strings And e can fight with pen and paint Each blessed one can sing And you'd best start runnin' when the lyrics start to flow You can tell us what to do, we'll tell you where to go Your whitewash paint is induced apathy In this land of the brave, this home of the free You know what is legal but we know right from wrong You'd prefer we keep our love confined to rock and roll songs But we will not follow you Your laws or your decrees We will melt whatever you can freeze And begin to love the world Through this old-time melody
