- North And South
- (Strummer/Rhodes)
-
- And so we say
- We ain't got life
- Don't want a cardboard cut-out
- Don't want a plastic knife
-
- Now I know, time can march
- With it's chargin' feet
- Now I know, words are only cheap
- It's gonna be a burn out
- All around this town
- The South is up
- But the North is down
-
- There's gonna be a killin'
- Of a woman and a man
- Trying to feed that child
- Without a coin in their hand
-
- And so we say
- Have you no use
- For eight million hands
- And the power of youth
-
- Now I know, time can march
- With it's chargin' feet
- Now I know, words are only cheap
- It's gonna be a burn out
- All around this town
- The South is up
- But the North is down
-
- There's gonna be a killin'
- Of a woman and a man
- Trying to feed that child
- Without a coin in their hand
-
- It's gonna be a burn out!
-
- And so we say
- We ain't diggin' no graves
- We're diggin' a foundation
- For a future to be made
-
- Now I know, time can march
- With it's chargin' feet
- Now I know, words are only cheap
- It's gonna be a burn out
- All around this town
- The South is up
- But the North is down
-
- There's gonna be a killin'
- Of a woman and a man
- Trying to feed that child
- Without a coin in their hand
-
- It's gonna be a burn out!
