I Dreamed I Saw Phil Ochs Last Night Lyrics


I dreamed I saw Phil Ochs last night
Alive as you and me
Says I to Phil, "You're ten years dead
"I never died", says he
"I never died", says heThe music business killed you Phil
They ignored the things you said
And cast you out when fashions changed
Says Phil, "But I ain't dead"
Says Phil, "But I ain't dead"The FBI harassed you Phil
They smeared you with their lies
Says he, "But they could never kill
What they could not compromise
I never compromised""Though fashion's changed and critics sneered
The songs that I have sung
Are just as true tonight as then
The struggle carries on
The struggle carries on"

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

Billy Bragg (Stephen William Bragg, Barking, Essex, England, 20 December, 1957) is an English singer-songwriter and left-wing activist. His music blends elements of folk music, punk rock and protest songs, and his lyrics mostly deal with political or romantic themes. In 1977, Bragg formed the punk rock/pub rock band Riff Raff, and toured London's pubs and clubs. The band released a series of singles, which did not receive wide exposure. He also worked in Guy Norris Records in Barking.
