Willie Nelson - For What It's Worth lyrics

There's something happening here What it is ain't exactly clear There's a man with a gun over there Telling me I got to beware I think it's time we stop, children, what's that sound Everybody look what's going down Battle lines being drawn Nobody's right if everyone's wrong People speaking their minds Getting so much resistance from behind Yeah, stop children, what's that sound Everybody look what's going down What a field-day for the heat Ten thousand people in the street Singing songs and carrying signs Mostly say, hooray for our side I think it's time we stop, children, what's that sound Everybody look what's going down Paranoia strikes deep Into your life it will creep It starts when you're always afraid Step out of line, the man come and take you away Stop, children, what's that sound Everybody look what's going down Stop, hey, what's that sound Everybody look what's going down You better stop! Stop You better stop! Stop You better stop!
