Ease My Revolutionary Mind

Night is here again, baby

I'm stretched out on my bed

Seeing all kinds of crazy notions

Running through my head

I need a progressive woman

I need an awfully liberal woman

Ain't no reactionary baby

Can ease my revolutionary mind

One hand is on my pillow

One hand is on my head

I see a million nightmares

Tearing around inside my head

I need a progressive woman (yeah)

I need an awful liberal woman (yeah)

I need a social conscious woman (yeah)

To ease my revolutionary mind

If I could only make you see, babe

How I ache and pain and bleed

I know you'd come a runnin'

If you blistered both your feet

I need a progressive woman (yeah)

I need an awful liberal woman (yeah)

I need an open-minded mama (yeah)

To ease my revolutionary mind (yeah)

If you could see me here, baby

Broke out in salty sweat

No matter where you go

I know you never could forget

I need a progressive woman (yeah)

I need a liberal thinkin' woman (yeah)

I need an open-hearted mama (yeah)

To ease my revolutionary mind (yeah)

I ain't no lumpen proletariat

I ain't no petty bourgeoisie

But I'm gonna be a cold corpse

If you don't run here to me

I need a progressive shipmate (yeah)

I need a liberist nature lover (yeah)

Ain't no reactionary female (yeah)

Can ease my revolutionary mind

If you're a Republican or a Democrat

Or a white hood Ku Klux Klan

No use to ring my doorbell

'Cause I'll never be your man

I want a union working woman (yeah)

I want a progressive liberous woman (yeah)

I need an nice progressive mama (yeah)

To ease my revolutionary

Ease my revolutionary

Ease my revolutionary mind

Hey!
