Steel Pulse - Uncle George lyrics

This One's in memory of Uncle George We brethrens aware, we realise what you stood for (4) George Jackson Soledad brother Malicious unjust society He became revolutionary (2) George Jackson Soledad brother No Three Cheers For Uncle George Baton Clap but Lord Truncheon make no applause Weathered face of distortion behind iron bars Sights of darkness and torture and condemned Fate that he saw The framed him Yes they framed him Backraw back up George Right now in the morgue He's rebelling for a cause Eleven years he's beared the scars of injustice yeh Deeper scars remain of solitary confinement No you can't trust the fuzz He only stole seventy dollars He was advised to plead guilty He got not one year but life For demanding his rights, George (2) George Jackson Soledad brother Malicious unjust society He became revolutionary, George Jackson Soledad brother, Prevented, Prohibited, from pardon and parole Just a foolish youth, from backraw man he stole Now he lies there rotting in a morbid morgue The Fuzz claimed he suffered a disease call rebelling for a cause (4) O Lord them got George Them shot George Help George (4) George Jackson Soledad brother Malicious unjust society He became revolutionary, Jackson (2) Confinement confinement George, George Jackson
