Ferocious Dog - Freeborn John lyrics

We were fed upon a diet of lies, we rallied to the cause In history well its all the same, the poor folk fight the wars There's not a tear that fills my sad blue eyes As we gaze into the blood red sky Now I'm standing in the rain against a blood soaked wall We the proletariat still answer to the call For those who judge me won't you spare a thought For all the wars and battles that we fought Parliament promised changes, we fought against the king In the end when the war was won it didn't change a thing My only crime was fighting for a cause Against this tyranny and unjust laws Cromwell had the victory and power in his hand free thinkers and the Levellers cut down by his command Freeborn John your vision lingers on If not in law then in my mind and song Free me In the land that calls my name Can't you see we're all to blame Go and hang your heads in shame Sea green ribbon worn for me In the name of liberty So our children can be free
