Lyrics

Save The Country

[Intro]

Come on, people

Come on, children

Come on down to the glory river

Gonna wash you up and wash you down

Gonna lay the devil down

We're gonna lay that devil down

[Verse 1]

Come on, people

Come on, children

There's a king at the glory river

And the precious king

And the people sing

Babies in the blinking sun

Singing "We Shall Overcome"

[Chorus]

Well I've got a fury in my soul

Fury's gonna take me to the glory goal

In my mind I can't study war no more

Save the people

Save the children

Save the country

[Verse 2]

Come on, people

Sons and mothers

Keep the dream of the two young brothers

Gonna take the dream

And ride the dove

We could build the dream with love

Gonna build that dream with love

[Chorus]

And I've got a fury in my soul

Fury's gonna take me to the glory goal

In my mind I can't study war no more

Save the people

Save the children

Save the country
