Which Side Are You On?

Which Side Are You On?

Come all ye gathered round here
And listen while you can
To the voice of every woman
The conflicted heart of man

Which Side Are You On?

My Daddy was a soldier
And I'm a soldier's child
But the dream of peace
And the urge to fight
Just can't be reconciled

Which Side Are You On?

They say stand up for justice
And where we drew the line
And you can do the killing
Because we don't have the spine

Which Side Are You On?

I read all ten commandments
Our parade of sins and tricks
I think one said, "Thou shalt not kill"
But it's only Number Six

Which Side Are You On?

They kill us while we're sleeping
They kill us overhead
But I can't pay my grocery bill
Or keep my children fed

So suffer little children
And never spare the rod
Do we kill and keep on killing
Until we're understood?
