Brian Setzer - Barbwire Fence Lyrics
They took the coal from the mountains, ripped the fruit from the soilPulled the fish from the sea, drained the earth of its oilTook the christ out of christmas, pulled the sun from the skyTheir daddies told them to never ask whyThe barbwire fence is gettin higher and higherWere gettin ready to fight fire with fireIts gettin so there aint a kind word saidBut we gotta keep movin on, pushin on aheadThey led a blind man to a cliff, gave a crippled man a kickTook a poor man to the cleaners and a rich man has his pickGave a three piece man a job, took an old man to a whoreSent a young boy to a place he aint never been beforeThe barbwire fence is gettin higher and higherWere gettin ready to fight fire with fireIts gettin so there aint a kind word saidBut we gotta keep movin on, pushin on aheadWell if they force me to reason, if they ask me to doubtIll fuss then baby and fight em baby, owEast wind is blowin and a full moon is highTheres just no purpose, theres no reason whyThe barbwire fence is gettin higher and higherWere gettin ready to fight fire with fireIts gettin so there aint a kind word saidBut we gotta keep movin on, pushin on ahead
