Fight Lyrics

by Mavis Staples

[Verse 1]
Out on the streets on every dollar he hold on
Can't get me out unless you use a shoe horn
Either destruction but you still talking free trade
You give me lemons and I'll make lemonade
[ Lyrics from: http://www.cloverlyrics.com/e120766-mavis_staples~fight_lyrics.html ]
[Hook]
So I pray, though I'm tired
But this can't wait, so we fight

[Verse 2]
They say you earn a penny, each one you save
Easy to save it when you don't need a damn thing
Talking 'bout Jesus but yopu treat people dead wrong
Looking for answers but you singing the same song
Your economics well they sure need a change
You know damn well those CEO's need no raise
Freedom and justice well they ain't your play thing
Prop up your puppets and you kill the real king

[Hook]

[Bridge]
Fight, fight
Fight, fight
Fight, fight

[Verse 3]
I hear my mama calling all the way home
I'm no hurry go on push it right on
Yeah I'm a soldier but I don't use a gun
Out on them [?] my daddy kept one
They say you earn a penny, each one you save
Won't mean nothing when you're down in the grave
You know the ends don't really justify means
Prop up your puppets and defy the real queen

[Hook] x2

[Outro]
We fight, fight, fight
We fight, fight, fight
We fight, fight, fight
