Strawbs - Keep The Devil Outside lyrics

As for the help you called for Nobody seemed to answer The difference in man is no more Than being a priest or dancer See men of power in recess They really don't know what they're after They drink to the things that they see best And drown in the tears of their laughter If you see fit to fight Whether you're black or white How many hope to keep the devil outside? How many hope to keep the devil outside? You've been given your name and your number Right from when you were a baby I look at the earth and I wonder What have they done to her lately? If you see fit to fight Whether you're black or white How many hope to keep the devil outside? How many hope to keep the devil outside? Love dies hard... You will never hear me say That the world will not see again today See a better day If you see fit to hide Mistakes of the men that died How many hope to keep the devil outside? How many hope to keep the devil outside? If you see fit to fight Whether you're black or white How many hope to keep the devil outside? How many hope to keep the devil outside?
