Don`t Drag Me Down Lyrics

Don`t Drag Me Down

Children are taught to hate, parents just couldn't wait
Some are rich and
some are poor, others will just suffer more
Have you ever been ashamed and
felt society try to keep you down?
I begin to watch things change and see
them turn around
chorus:
Turn around, they'll try to keep you
down
Turn around, Turn around
Don't drag me down
Ignorance like a gun
in hand, reach out to the promised land
Your history books are full of lies,
media-blitz gonna dry your eyes
Have you ever been afraid, and felt society
try to keep you down?
I begin to watch things change see them turn
around
chorus:
Ignorance like a gun in hand
reach out to the promised
land
Your history books are full of lies,
media -blitz gonna dry your
eyes
You're eighteen wanna be a man
Your granddaddy's in the Ku Klux
Klan
Taking two steps forward
and four steps back
Gonna go to the
White House
and paint it black
chorus:
