Revolution Blues

Well, we live in a trailer at the edge of town

You never see us 'cause we don't come around

We got twenty five rifles just to keep the population down

But we need you now, and that's why I'm hangin' 'round

So you be good to me and I'll be good to you

And in this land of conditions I'm not above suspicion

I won't attack you, but I won't back you

Well, it's so good to be here, asleep on your lawn

Remember your guard dog?

Well, I'm afraid that he's gone

It was such a drag to hear him whining all night long

Yes, that was me with the doves

Setting them free near the factory

Where you built your computer, love

I hope you get the connection

'cause I can't take the rejection

I won't deceive you, I just don't believe you

Well, I'm a barrel of laughs, with my carbine on

I keep 'em hoppin', till my ammunition's gone

But I'm still not happy

I feel like there's something wrong

I got the revolution blues

I see bloody fountains

And ten million dune buggies comin' down the mountains

Well, I hear that Laurel Canyon is full of famous stars

But I hate them worse than lepers and I'll kill them in their cars
