(Kris Kristofferson)
 
They're killing babies in the name of freedom
We've been down that sorry road before
They let us hang around a little longer than they should have
And it's too late to fool us anymore.

We've seen the ones who killed the ones with vision
Cold-blooded murder right before your eyes
Today they hold the power and the money and the guns
It's gettin' hard to listen to their lies.

I've just got to wonder what my daddy would've done
If he'd seen the way they turned his dream around
I've got to go by what he told me
Try to tell the truth and stand your ground, don't let the bastards get you down.

Minin' roads, killin' farmers, burnin' down schools full of children, fightin' communism.

I've just got to wonder what my daddy would've done
If he'd seen the way they turned his dream around
I've got to go by what he told me
Try to tell the truth and stand your ground, don't let the bastards get you down.

Don't let the bastards get you down (don't let the bastards get you down)
Don't let the bastards get you down (don't let the bastards get you down)
Don't let the bastards get you down...
