[Intro]
F Dm F Dm C
[Verse 1]
F Dm
You came down to this southern town last summer
Gm C
To show the folks a brand new way of life
F Dm
But all you've shown the folks around here is trouble
G C
And you've only added misery to their strife
C7 F
Your concern is not to help the people
F7 Bb
And I'll say again, though it's been often said
C F Dm
Your concern is just to bring discomfort, my friend
Gm C
And your policy is just a little red
Dm
Now, ain't I right (ain't he right)
C
(ain't he right)
[Verse 2]
F Dm
It matters not to you how people suffer
Gm C
And should they, you'd consider that a gain
F Dm
You bring a lot of trouble to the town and then you leave
G C
That's part of your Communistic game
C7 F
I detect a little Communism
F7 Bb
I can see it in the things you do
C F Dm
Communisim, socialism call it what you like
Gm C
There's very little difference in the two
Dm
Now, ain't I right (ain't he right)
C
(ain't he right)
[Verse 3]
F Dm
Your followers sometimes have been a bearded, hatless bunch
Gm C
There's even been a minister or two
F Dm
A priest, a nun, a rabbi and an educated man
G C
Have listened and been taken in by you
C7 F
Aw, the country's full of two-faced politicians
F7 Bb
Who encourage you with words that go like this
C F Dm
Burn your draft card if you like, it's good to disagree
Gm C
That's a get acquainted Communistic kiss
Dm
Now, ain't I right (ain't he right)
C
(ain't he right)
[Verse 4]
F Dm
One politician said it would be nice to send some blood
Gm C
And help the enemy in Vietnam
F
That's what he says, here's what I say
Dm
Let's just keep the blood
G C
Instead let's send that politician man
C7 F
Let's rid the country of the politicians,
F7 Bb
Who call us tramps, that march out in our streets
C F Dm
Protesting those who wanna fight for freedom, my friend
Gm C
This kind of leader makes our country weak
Dm
Now, ain't I right (ain't he right)
C
(ain't he right)
[Verse 5]
F Dm
Let's look and find the strong and able leaders
Gm C
It's time we found just how our neighbours stand
F Dm
If we're to win this war with Communism
G C
Let's fight it here as well as Vietnam
C7 F
Let's rise as one and meet our obligations
F7 Bb
So Communistic boots will never trod
C F Dm
Across the fields of freedom that were given to us
Gm C F
With the blessing of our great almighty God
Bb C F Dm
Across the fields of freedom that were given to us
Gm Bb C F
With the blessing of our great almighty God
