lyrics

You can hit
You can block
You can take
A punch or two
Still that might not be good enough
For a kid like you

Yes mam
No sir
Thank you much
These eyes won't stare
To belong
To feel in place
What is the price to get there

No man will be undone
By present powers that be
Stand up, stand up don't run
Cause freedom don't come for free
Sleeping 'neath the ashe tree

Seasons will come, seasons will go
It never stops
The winter will come and the winter will go

Now he's back with a fever and a chill
His arms are sore
And the man who used to shake his hand
Won't anymore

Put down your shovel and dirt
Put down your etched in stone
Pocket your sense of worth
There's something that he'd like to own

That no man will be undone
By present powers that be
Stand up, stand up don't run
Cause freedom don't come for free
Sleeping 'neath the ashe tree
