¡Let Freedom Ring! Lyrics

Let there be darkness let there be light
As the hawk cripples the dove
Over and over watch the dove die
as they rip up the floorboards aboveLet there be gossip let it be cruel
I'll still be home before dark
I've been through the ringer and I know you have to
but their bite is much worse than their barkOh let freedom ring
C'mon let freedom ring
As the rivers rise up and over the banks
and there's nowhere a poor boy can hideLet there be markets let em run wild
As the sisters of mercy just laugh
All the lost brothers can drink themselves blind
While good fortune breaks hard work in halfLet em have mercedes and a house on the beach
Sit by the pool and get high
Raise a cool bottle to the heavens above
While the creatures struggles in the tideOh Let freedom ring
C'mon let freedom ring
As the rivers rise up and over the banks

and there's nowhere a poor boy can hideOh let freedom ring
C'mon let freedom ring
Let freedom ring
Oh let feedom ringLet there be darkness let there be light
As the hawk cripples the dove
