Talkin' Bout a Revolution

They're talking about a revolution? It sounds like a whisper Don't you know Talking 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 Sittin' around waiting for a promotion Don't you know Talking bout 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 Oh, I said you better Run, run, run, run, run, run Run, run, run, run, run, run 'Cause finally the tables are starting to turn Talkin' about a revolution 'Cause finally the tables are starting to turn Talkin' 'bout a revolution, oh no Talkin' 'bout a revolution, oh I've been standing in the welfare lines Crying at the doorsteps of those armies of salvation Wasting time in the unemployment lines Sittin' around waitin' for a promotion Don't you know Talking about a revolution? It sounds like a whisper And finally the tables are starting to turn Talkin' 'bout a revolution 'Cause finally the tables are starting to turn Talkin' 'bout a revolution, oh no Talkin' 'bout a revolution, oh no Talkin' 'bout a revolution, oh no --- Talkin' Bout a Revolution - Tracy Chapman
