John Ralston - All Day Long lyrics

This is a song about the innocent Who died at the hands of a desperate man He trusted those and he thought he knew He trusted those who he looked up to I'll never forget the joy in his face He'd laugh and he'd cry and he'd ruin my place He'd drive me crazy and he'd drive me wild I used to scream and shout all day long, oh, oh All day long, yeah, yeah All day long, oh, oh All day long, yeah, yeah Now I hope you know this song Is about a child who now has gone And other children like him, too Abused and used by what adults do So don't tell me about politics Or the problems of our economics When you can't look after what you can't own You scream and shout all day long, oh, oh All day long, yeah, yeah All day long, oh, oh All day long, yeah, yeah
