Machine Gun - Live at Fillmore East 1/1/70 [First Show] Jimi Hendrix

[Spoken Intro]
Happy New Year, first of all
I hope we have about a million, or two million more of them
If we can get over this summer; hehehe
I'd like to dedicate this one to, uh
The draggy scene that's going on
All the soldiers that are fighting in Chicago and Milwaukee and New York
Oh yes, and all the soldiers fighting in Vietnam
I'd like to do a thing called "Machine Gun"

[Refrain]
Machine gun
Tearing my body all apart
Machine gun
Tearing my body all apart

[Verse 1]
Evil man make me kill you
Evil man make you kill me
Evil man make me kill you
Even though we're only families apart

[Verse 2]
Well I pick up my axe and fight like a farmer
You know what I mean?
Hey, and your bullets keep knocking me down
Hey, I pick up my axe and fight like a farmer now
Yeah, but you still blast me down, to the ground
