Sandy Pearlman - Guns On the Roof lyrics

I swear by Almighty God To tell the whole truth And nothin' but the truth Guns guns (x4) They torture all the women and children Then they've put the men to the gun Because across the human frontier Freedom's always on the run Guns guns, a-shakin' in terror Guns guns, k**in' in error Guns guns, guilty hands Guns guns, shatter the lands A system built by the sweat of the many Creates a**a**ins to k** off the few Take any place and call it a court house This is a place where no judge can stand Sue the lawyers and burn all the papers Unlock the keys of the legal rapers A jury of a billion faces Shouted out condemned out of hand Guns guns, and nobody's kiddin' Guns guns, or foolin' around Guns guns, the violence is singin' Guns guns, a silence the sound And I like to be in Africa A'beatin' on the final drum I like to be in U.S.S.R Makin' sure these things will come I like to be in U.S.A Pretendin' that the wars are done And I like to be in Europe Saying goodbye to everyone Guns guns, guns on the roof Guns guns, made to shoot (x5)
