"Sold Us Down The River" lyrics - LEE ROCKER

Sold us down the river
Sold us down the river

Too many people dyin' in the sand
Too many people want to hear a marching band
Too many people listen to the lies
Too many people getting set up just to die

Well, the night's so dark and the cold
It makes me shiver
Well, they sold us down the river

Well, too many people must be sleepin' at the wheel
Sold us down the river
Too many people want to run a dirty deal
Sold us down the river

Too many people are just lookin' for a buck
Sold us down the river
Too many people just don't care enough
Sold us down the river

Well, the night's so dark and the cold
It makes me shiver
Well, they sold us down the river

Sold us down the river
Sold us down the river

Too many people don't stop and ask why
Too many people getting set up just to die
Too many people believe what they're told
Too many people never get to grow old

Well, the night's so dark and the cold
It makes me shiver
Well, they sold us down the river
Sold us down the river
Sold us down the river

We need a change, we need it fast
Sold us down the river
We got a chance but the time is blowin' past
Sold us down the river

We gotta speak and, they gotta hear
Sold us down the river
Well, the time is getting right and the time is getting near
Sold us down the river

Well, the night so dark and the cold
It makes me shiver
Well, they sold us down the river

Sold us down the river
Sold us down the river
Sold us down the river
Sold us down the river
Sold us down the river

Sold us down the river
Sold us down the river
Sold us down the river
Sold us down the river
Sold us down the river
