Marty Robbins - Ain't I Right lyrics

rate me

You came down to this southern town last summer<br />

To show the folks a brand new way of life<br />

But all you've shown the folks around here is trouble<br />

And you've only added misery to their strife<br />

Your concern is not to help the people<br />

And I'll say again, though it's been often said<br />

Your concern is just to bring discomfort, my friend<br />

And your policy is just a little red<br />

Now, ain't I right (ain't he right)<br />

(ain't he right)<br />

It matters not to you how people suffer<br />

And should they, you'd consider that a gain<br />

You bring a lot of trouble to the town and then you leave<br />

That's part of your Communistic game<br />

I detect a little Communisim<br />

I can see it in the things ya do<br />

Communisim, socialism call it what you like<br />

There's very little difference in the two<br />

Now, ain't I right (ain't he right)<br />

(ain't he right)<br />

Your followers sometimes have been a bearded, hatless bunch<br />

There's even been a minister or two<br />

A priest, a nun, a rabbi and an educated man<br />

Have listened and been taken in by you<br />

Aw, the country's full of two-faced politicians<br />

Who encourage you with words that go like this<br />

Burn your draft card if you like, it's good to disagree<br />

That's a get aquainted Communistic kiss<br />

Now, ain't I right (ain't he right)<br />

(ain't he right)<br />

One politician said it would be nice to send some blood<br />

And help the enemy in Vietnam<br />

That's what he says, here's what I say<br />

Let's just keep the blood<br />

Instead let's send that politician man<br />

Let's rid the country of the politicians,<br />

Who call us tramps, that march out in our streets<br />

Protesting those who wanna fight for freedom, my friend<br />

This kind of leader makes our country weak<br />

Now, ain't I right (ain't he right)<br />

(ain't he right)<br />

Let's look and find the strong and able leaders<br />

It's time we found just how our neighbours stand<br />

If we're to win this war with Communism<br />

Let's fight it here as well as Vietman<br />

Let's rise as one and meet our obligations<br />

So Communistic boots will never trod<br />

Across the fields of freedom that were given to us<br />

With the blessing of our great almighty God<br />

Across the fields of freedom that were given to us<br />

With the blessing of our great almighty God
