Soldiers of Solidarity
When you’re bogged, in the dog-eat-dog,
When looking out for Number 1 won’t do.
When you’re broke, at the end of your rope;
The whole world is caving in on you.
I think you need – Soldiers of Solidarity.
When you’re trapped, under attack,
When the vultures are circling over you.
When you’re in hock, hit bottom rock,
The reigns of poverty are jerkin’ on you.
I think you need – Soldiers of Solidarity.
When you’re stuck, knee-deep in mud,
Wiped away by a flood or a hurricane.
When you’ve been torn, by some brutal storm,
Standin’ abandoned in the pouring rain.
I think you need – Soldiers of Solidarity
People like you and me, Soldiers of Solidarity.
{Bridge} When all looks lost, and you’ve been tossed
To the wolves of a system that don’t give a damn.
The only way we’ll live to see a better day,
Is when we band and join forces again.
When you’re homeless, out on the street,
About to crack, your back’s against the wall.
When you’ve been burned, got nowhere to turn,
On the edge of a ledge, getting’ ready to fall
I think you need – Soldiers of Solidarity,
People like you and me – Soldiers of Solidarity.
{Bridge}They rule the seas, they’re the powers that be,
You’ll never beat them alone, you see
The only damn thing that’s gonna break these chains,
Is when we band and join forces again,
You and me – Soldiers of Solidarity.
People like you and me – Soldiers of Solidarity
If we’re standing here together,
We can make this world much better. (2X)
If we’re standing here in Solidarity.
