Talkin' Bout a Revolution Lyrics
Don't you know
They're talkin' bout a revolution
It sounds like a whisper
Don't you know
They're talkin' about a revolution
It sounds like a whisper
While they're standing in the welfare lines
Crying at the doorsteps of those armies of salvation
Wasting time in the unemployment lines
Sitting around waiting for a promotion
Poor people gonna rise up
And get their share
Poor people gonna rise up
And take what's theirs
Don't you know
You better run, run, run...
Oh I said you better
Run, run, run...
Finally the tables are starting to turn
Talkin' bout a revolution!
They're talkin' bout a revolution
It sounds like a whisper
Don't you know
They're talkin' about a revolution
It sounds like a whisper
Crying at the doorsteps of those armies of salvation
Wasting time in the unemployment lines
Sitting around waiting for a promotion
And get their share
Poor people gonna rise up
And take what's theirs
You better run, run, run...
Oh I said you better
Run, run, run...
Talkin' bout a revolution!

RBF did amazingly on this song. Tracy Chapman should be proud.
Tracey Chapman should be jealous, her version sucked...and it's her song!
