John Fogerty: "Long Dark Night"

[reprehensor]

From the new John Fogerty album, "Revival"

LONG DARK NIGHT

Georgie's in the jungle
knockin’ on the door
come to get your children
wants to have a war

Come on, lord you’d better run,
be a long dark night before this thing is done

Brownie's in the outhouse
Katrina on the line
government's a disaster
but Georgie says it’s fine

Come on, lord you’d better run,
be a long dark night before this thing is done

Rummie's in the kitchen messin’ with the pans
Dickie’s in the back stealin' everything he can

Come on, Lord you’d better run,
be a long dark night before this thing is done

You better run, you better run,
Lord you better run, Lord you better run,

Runnin’ down the highway
shoutin’ to the Lord
George's got religion
and you know he can’t afford more years

Come on, Lord you’d better run
be a long dark night before this thing is done
be a long dark night before this thing is done, oh Lord

4. Dang, this song's even better... "I Can't Take It No More"

Same album;

I CAN'T TAKE IT NO MORE

I Can't Take It No More
I Can't Take It No More
I'm sick and tired of your dirty little war
I Can't Take It No More

You know you lied about the casualties
You know you lied about the WMD's
You know you lied about the detainees
All over this world

Stop talking about staying the course
You keep a-beating that old dead horse
You know you lied about how we went to war
I Can't Take It No More

I can't take it
I can't take it

I bet you never saw the old school yard
I bet you never saw the national guard
Your daddy wrote a check and there you are
Another fortunate son

I can't take it no more
I can't take it no more
I'm sick and tired of your dirty little war
I can't take it no more
