[Intro]
FF DmDm FF DmDm C majorC
[Verse 1]
FF DmDm
You came down to this southern town last summer
G minorGm C majorC
To show the folks a brand new way of life
FF DmDm
But all you've shown the folks around here is trouble
G minorGm C majorC
And you've only added misery to their strife
C7C7 FF
Your concern is not to help the people
F7F7 Bb majorBb
And I'll say again, though it's been often said
C majorC FF DmDm
Your concern is just to bring discomfort, my friend
G minorGm C majorC
And your policy is just a little red
DmDm
Now, ain't I right (ain't he right)
C majorC
(ain't he right)
[Verse 2]
FF DmDm
It matters not to you how people suffer
G minorGm C majorC
And should they, you'd consider that a gain
FF DmDm
You bring a lot of trouble to the town and then you leave
G minorGm C majorC
That's part of your Communistic game
C7C7 FF
I detect a little Communism
F7F7 Bb majorBb
I can see it in the things you do
C majorC FF DmDm
Communisim, socialism call it what you like
G minorGm C majorC
There's very little difference in the two
DmDm
Now, ain't I right (ain't he right)
C majorC
(ain't he right)
[Verse 3]
FF DmDm
Your followers sometimes have been a bearded, hatless bunch
G minorGm C majorC
There's even been a minister or two
FF DmDm
A augmentedA priest, a nun, a rabbi and an educated man
G minorGm C majorC
Have listened and been taken in by you
C7C7 FF
Aw, the country's full of two-faced politicians
F7F7 Bb majorBb
Who encourage you with words that go like this
C majorC FF DmDm
Burn your draft card if you like, it's good to disagree
G minorGm C majorC
That's a get acquainted Communistic kiss
DmDm
Now, ain't I right (ain't he right)
C majorC
(ain't he right)
[Verse 4]
FF DmDm
One politician said it would be nice to send some blood
G minorGm C majorC
And help the enemy in Vietnam
FF
That's what he says, here's what I say
DmDm
Let's just keep the blood
G minorGm C majorC
Instead let's send that politician man
C7C7 FF
Let's rid the country of the politicians,
F7F7 Bb majorBb
Who call us tramps, that march out in our streets
C majorC FF DmDm
Protesting those who wanna fight for freedom, my friend
G minorGm C majorC
This kind of leader makes our country weak
DmDm
Now, ain't I right (ain't he right)
C majorC
(ain't he right)
[Verse 5]
FF DmDm
Let's look and find the strong and able leaders
G minorGm C majorC
It's time we found just how our neighbours stand
G minorGm DmDm
If we're to win this war with Communism
FF C majorC
Let's fight it here as well as Vietnam
C7C7 FF
Let's rise as one and meet our obligations
F7F7 Bb majorBb
So Communistic boots will never trod
C majorC FF DmDm
Across the fields of freedom that were given to us
G minorGm C majorC FF
With the blessing of our great almighty God
Bb majorBb C majorC FF DmDm
Across the fields of freedom that were given to us
G minorGm Bb majorBb C majorC FF
With the blessing of our great almighty God
