My grandpa had a rifle that he took from a Vietcong
My grandpa had a rifle that he took from a Vietcong
But he pawned it on a guitar when he got back from Saigon
But he pawned it on a guitar when he got back from Saigon
Every now and then I think about him when I set down to play
Every now and then I think about him when I set down to play
Swing Low Sweet Chariot, Amazing Grace
Swing Low Sweet Chariot, Amazing Grace
So let the beat roll on
So let the beat roll on
About to get in the zone
About to get in the zone
I been locked up all by myself but I'm known to grow my own
I been locked up all by myself but I'm known to grow my own
I Burn it 'til it's gone
I Burn it 'til it's gone
Like there ain't nothing wrong
Like there ain't nothing wrong
I'm just out in the shade watching the world go up in flames
I'm just out in the shade watching the world go up in flames
I was born from barbwire
I was born from barbwire
I been stuck out in the fray
I been stuck out in the fray
I'ma shed this mortal coil like a canebrake rattlesnake
I'ma shed this mortal coil like a canebrake rattlesnake
I'm gonna feast among the righteous
I'm gonna feast among the righteous
Gonna see my friends again
Gonna see my friends again
Gonna dance outside the gates hoping like hell they let me in
Gonna dance outside the gates hoping like hell they let me in
So let the beat roll on
So let the beat roll on
About to get in the zone
About to get in the zone
I been locked up all by myself but I'm known to grow my own
I been locked up all by myself but I'm known to grow my own
I Burn it 'til it's gone
I Burn it 'til it's gone
Like there ain't nothing wrong
Like there ain't nothing wrong
I'm just out in the shade watching the world go up in flames
I'm just out in the shade watching the world go up in flames
California's burning
California's burning
It's snowing in the pines
It's snowing in the pines
They say the world is ending well maybe it's about time
They say the world is ending well maybe it's about time
Have we forgot about the children?
Have we forgotten about the children?
Forgot about love?
Forgot about love?
Have we forgot about forgiveness from the good Lord up above?
Have we forgotten about forgiveness from the good Lord up above?
So let the beat roll on
So let the beat roll on
About to get in the zone
About to get in the zone
I been locked up all by myself but I'm known to grow my own
I been locked up all by myself but I'm known to grow my own
I Burn it 'til it's gone
I Burn it 'til it's gone
Like there ain't nothing wrong
Like there ain't nothing wrong
I'm just out in the shade watching the world go up in flames
I'm just out in the shade watching the world go up in flames
Watching the world go up in flames
Watching the world go up in flames
Watching the world go up in flames
Watching the world go up in flames
