SINGER: The Clash

SONG:North And South

(strummer/rhodes)
And so we say
we ain't got life
don't want a cardboard cut-out
don't want a plastic knife
Now i know, time can march
with it's chargin' feet
now i know, words are only cheap
it's gonna be a burn out
all around this town
the south is up
but the north is down
There's gonna be a killin'
of a woman and a man
trying to feed that child
without a coin in their hand

And so we say
have you no use
for eight million hands
and the power of youth
Now i know, time can march
with it's chargin' feet
now i know, words are only cheap
it's gonna be a burn out
all around this town
the south is up
but the north is down
There's gonna be a killin'
of a woman and a man
trying to feed that child
without a coin in their hand
It's gonna be a burn out!
And so we say
we ain't diggin' no graves
we're diggin' a foundation
for a future to be made
Now i know, time can march
with it's chargin' feet
now i know, words are only cheap
it's gonna be a burn out
all around this town
the south is up
but the north is down
There's gonna be a killin'
of a woman and a man
trying to feed that child
without a coin in their hand
It's gonna be a burn out!
