Jackson-Kent Blues Steve Miller Band

[Verse 1]
I was down in Nashville, just payin' my dues
Headed for Ohio when I read the news
'Bout the people demonstrating against the President's views
Four were shot down by the National Guard troops
Just like Uncle Sam, I put on my fighting shoes
School shut down 'cause there's no more to lose
Now we're headed to D.C. two by twos
With those low-down, profound, killin' four blues
Ooh, ooh, ooh

[Verse 2]
Lookin' for my Congressman to make it all well known
But the politicians already won't answer his telephone
Baking in his office while they're shooting kids down at home
He's worried about the voters, but he won't be worried long
Silent majority still glued to the tube
Say CIA ain't lookin', FBI come unglued
Shot some more in Jackson just to show the world what they can do
While we're marching to D.C., oh, there's too much to do
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh

[Bridge]
Give peace a chance
Always give peace a chance
There's no turnin' back
There's no turnin' back
There's no turnin' back, my friend
There's no turnin' back
