Christ we were dying in the streets running one last anthem through your heart
Swearing life on liberty I'll take a dream an ideal die sound in a lonely death
Pass this compromise on...

My regrets to Columbus (GA) and nothing more when Reagan became the final word
Just one month later they shot Lennon dead, will anybody cry for me?
All nations claim until they day that I die, I am citizen

We'll let music rule our life, celebrate shortcomings
If it's not angry young and beautiful, I don't want any part of it
Who do you have to cheat to get what you want, who do you lie to, to get what you need?
You deserve everything you got coming to you...

My regrets to Columbus (GA) and nothing more when Reagan became the final word
Just one month later they shot Lennon dead, will anybody cry for me?
All nations claim until they day that I die, I am citizen

(Harmonica solo)

My regrets to Columbus (GA) and nothing more when Reagan became the final word
Just one month later they shot Lennon dead, will anybody cry for me?
All nations claim until they day that I die, I am citizen
