(Walking on the fightin' side of me)
I hear people talkin' bad
About the way they have to live here in this country;
Harpin' on the wars we fight
An' gripin' 'bout the way things oughta be
I don't mind 'em switchin' sides
An' standin' up for things that they believe in
But, When they're runnin' down our country, man
They're walkin' on the fightin' side of me
Their, walkin' on the fightin' side of me
Runnin' down a way of life
Our fightin' men have fought and tried to keep
Well, If you don't love it, leave it:
Let this song that I'm singin' be a warnin'
And when you're runnin' down our country, hoss
You're walkin' on the fightin' side of me
--- Instrumental ---
I read about some squirrely guy
Who claims, he just don't believe in fightin'
An' I wonder just how long
The rest of us can count on bein' free
They love our milk an' honey
But they preach about some other way of livin'
And when they're runnin' down our country, man
They're walkin' on the fightin' side of me
Aww, They're walkin' on the fightin' side of me
Runnin' down the way of life
Our fightin' men have fought and tried to keep
Well, If you don't love it, leave it:
Let this song that I'm singin' be a warnin'
And when you're runnin' down our country, hoss
You're walkin' on the fightin' side of me
Yes, when you runnin' down our country, hoss
You're walkin' on the fightin' side of me
