Sound of a Revolution

Verse 1
Turned us over, over and over
Do you really think we're blind
You threw the dice, once to often
Devil's not that kind
You took it all for granted
Didn't think we'd mind
It was one way traffic
Coming down the line
Verse 2
You built your house, With our resources
What are we to do
Your patronising, way of talking
Really turns the screw
Time for the action
To begin
Another battle
We've gotta win
Chorus
This is the Sound of Revolution
This is the Sound it makes Oh Yeah
This is the Sound of Revolution
And we've got what it takes Oh Yeah
Verse 3
Brothers, Sisters, come and join us
There's so much to do
Don't believe them, don't believe them
What we say is true
Time for the action
To begin
Another battle
We've gotta win
Chorus
This is the Sound of Revolution
This is the Sound it makes Oh Yeah
This is the Sound of Revolution
And we've got what it takes Oh Yeah

Caledonia's Calling

Verse 1
I'll be gone in the morning when my train pulls in
I'll be gone in the morning when my train pulls in
I've got the sweetest feeling, about a fight we have to win
Verse 2
I'm heading back home, Caledonia's calling me
I'm heading back home, Caledonia's calling me
Liberation, liberation, let that be our destiny
Verse 3
Tell me was it worth it Judas, or do you choke on the doubt
Tell me was it worth it Judas, or do you choke on the doubt
Was it a quarter of a million, to sell your country out?
Verse 4
Take me home take me home, where the golden eagles fly
Take me home take me home, where the golden eagles fly
Last time it slipped through my fingers, next time it won't get by

Scottish Boys
05:51
|

|
Verse 1
From a council house in Scotland
To the suburbs of Detroit
To a small holding in Australia
To Russian oil we exploit
Thirty years have passed in no time
To make our way we all took flight
But at the Horseshoe Bar in Glasgow
There old friends would reunite
Chorus
Scottish Boys are doing alright
Charge you glass and raise it high
To old friends and to our loved ones
United till the day we die
Verse 2
Corner boys in a Scottish city
Memories we won’t forget
Bloody rascals causing trouble
Many things we still regret
Susan, Ann, Elaine and Mary
Who offered love which we declined
There in our hearts, we raise our glasses
To all the girls we left behind
Chorus
Verse 3
This is such a common story
For the world is our domain
Scottish people made a difference
And for that we’ll drink again
Chorus

Chorus
Stand up and join the fight
Stand up and join the fight
Stand up and join the fight
Together we can make it right
Verse 1
I've been fighting all my life
Year on year it's been a lonely strife
No one seems to care from where I stand
That the rich man takes from the poorer man
Verse 2
They tell us that they understand
But it's all part of the masterplan
To get votes and to keep us down
But one day we'll turn it all around
Verse 3
They tell us what we should do
But they lie and cheat their women to
I know they see it fall apart
But they don't care, they don't have a heart
Verse 4
Raise their taxes and make them pay
That's how we did it in our fathers day
Don't believe them when they protest
For they need you to fund their excess

Chant 1
Give Me an F, Give me an R, Give me an E, Give me an E
Give Me a D, Give me an O, Give me an M
What's the spell, What's that spell, What's that spell, What's that spell
Let's meet in Freedom Square
Chant 2
Are you ready, hell yeah
Are you ready, hell yeah
I can feel it, we're almost there
Are you ready, hell yeah
Are you ready, hell yeah
I can feel it, in the air
Verse 1
You can run, you can hide, but you can't hold back the tide
Like a river we are running to be free
Deep down inside you know, you can never stop the flow
So prepare for independence day
Chant 2
Verse 2
You have tried, you have lied, but we will not be denied
Like a storm, we will blow and blow and blow
And we know that you know, this storm will not let go
Until independence day
Chant 2
Verse 3
So get ready, my friends, we are close to the end
No matter what they do or say
We wont run, we wont hide, and we will not be denied
So prepare for independence day

Lay Your Light On Me
05:01
|
|||
|
Verse 1
I was caught up in an endless search
To find the answer to it all
And as I sit and contemplate
I thought I heard you call
Pre Chorus 1
But like the fool I am I hesitate
Shift from side to side
Like the ship that lost its sail
I drifted with the tide
Chorus
Lay your light, Lay your light
Oh you gave it all to me
I was blind but now I see
Scotland, Bonnie Scotland,
You laid your light on me
Verse 2
I lived in hope but feared I may not see
That day I'm longing for
And all along you wait patiently
As our numbers soar
Pre Chorus 2
But as the moon lights up the evening sky
As the sun heats up the day
The love you gave touched my very soul
And I know I'll see the day
Chorus
