(Nancy Griffith)I am a backseat driver from americaThey drive to the left on falls roadAnd the man at the wheels name is ShamusWe pass a the child on a corner he knows.And shamus says now what chance has that kid gotAnd I say from the back I don't knowHe says there's barbed wire at all of these exitsThere ain't no place in Belfast for that kid to go.And it's a hard life, it's a hard lifeIt's a very hard life, it's a hard life wherever you goAnd we poison our children with hatredAnd the hard life is all that they know.--- Instrumental ---At the dairyline in ChicagoA fat man in front of meHe's calling black people trash to his childrenHe's the only trash here I see.And I'm thinking this man wears a white hoodIn the night when his children should sleepBut they'll slip to their windows and see himThey'll think that white hood's all they need.And it's a hard life, it's a hard lifeIt's a very hard life, it's a hard life wherever you goAnd we poison our children with hatredAnd the hard life is all that they know.--- Instrumental ---I was a child of the sixtiesWhen dreams could be held through tearsWith Disney and Cronkite and Martin LutherAnd I belived, I believed, I believed.Now I'm a backseat driver from AmericaAnd I'm not at the wheel of controlAnd I am guilty, I am worn, I am the root of all evilAnd I can't drive on the left side of the road.And it's a hard life, it's a hard lifeIt's a very hard life, it's a hard life wherever you goAnd we poison our children with hatredAnd the hard life is all that they know.And there ain't no place in this world for these kids to go'Cause it's a hard life wherever you go...-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/-/Abraham, Martin and John(Richard Holler)Has anybody here seen my old friend AbrahamCan you tell me where he's goneHe freed a lotta people but it seems the good die youngI just looked around and he's gone.Has anybody here seen my old friend MartinCan you tell me where he's goneHe freed a lotta people but it seems the good die youngI just looked around and he's gone.Has anybody here seen my old friend JohnCan you tell me where he's goneHe freed a lotta people but it seems the good die youngI just looked around and he's gone.Didn't you love the things they stood forDidn't they try to find some goodIn you and me and we'll be freeSomeday soon it's gonna be one day.Has anybody here seen my old friend Bobbycan you tell me where he's goneI thought I saw him walking up over the hillWith Abraham and Martin and John...
