Talkin' Bout a Revolution

Talkin' Bout a Revolution - Tracy Chapman

don't you know

they're talkin bout a revolution

It sounds like a whisper

don't you know

they're talkin about a revolution

It sounds like a whisper

While they're standing in the welfare lines

Crying at the doorsteps

of those armies of salvation

Wasting time in the unemployment lines

Sitting around waiting for a promotion

don't you know

they're talkin about a revolution

It sounds like a whisper

Poor people gonna rise up

And get their share

Poor people gonna rise up

And take what's theirs

don't you know

You better run, run, run.

run, run, run run, run, run

run, run, run run,

Oh I said you better

Run, run, run run, run,

run run, run, run.

run, run, run

this Finally the tables are starting to turn

Talkin bout a revolution

this Finally the tables are starting to turn

Talkin bout a revolution

Talkin bout a revolution

While they're standing in the welfare lines

Crying at the doorsteps

of those armies of salvation

Wasting time in the unemployment lines

Sitting around waiting for a promotion

don't you know

talkin bout a revolution

It sounds like a whisper

this Finally the tables are starting to turn

Talkin bout a revolution

this Finally the tables are starting to turn

Talkin bout a revolution

Talkin bout a revolution

Talkin bout a revolution
