Wednesday I watched the riot, I've seen the cops out on the street
Watch them throwing rocks and stuff and choking in the heat
Listen to reports, About the whiskey passin' round
Seen the smoke and fire, And the market burnin' down
I watched while everybody on the street would take a turn
E minorEm E minorEm E minorEm E minorEm E minorEm E minorEm E minorEm
To stomp and smash and bash and crash and slash and bust 'n burn Oh Oh…..
