Phil Lynott
Out in the Fields
[Verse 1]
It doesn't matter if you're wrong or if you're right
It makes no difference if you're Black or if you're White
All men are equal till the victory is won
No color or religion ever stopped a bullet from a gun

[Chorus]
Out in the fields—the fighting has begun
Out on the streets—they're falling one by one
Out from the skies—a thousand more will die each day
Death is just a heartbeat away

[Verse 2]
It doesn't matter if you're left or to the right
You try to hide behind the cause of which you fight
There'll be no prisoners taken when the day is done
No flag, no uniform ever stopped a bullet from a gun

[Chorus]
Out in the fields—the fighting has begun
Out on the streets—they're falling one by one
Out from the skies—a thousand more will die each day
Death is just a heartbeat away

[Bridge]
There's no communication—no one to take the blame
The cries of every nation have fallen on deaf ears again
[Solo]

[Refrain]
Out in the fields—out in the fields
They're falling one by one
Out in the fields
No flag has ever stopped a bullet from a gun

Death is just a heartbeat away

[Chorus]
Out in the fields—a heartbeat away
Out in the fields
Death is just a heartbeat away
Out in the fields—a heartbeat away
Out in the fields

[Outro]
Out!
