lyrics

This cold
Is creeping in
To my cell
Once again
Two more years
Of winter
Before I go
I wish I had
A whiskey
For my soul

I dream at night
Of being free
On the banks
Of an open sea
If you asked me
I'd tell you true
That this old place
Is nothing new

I am a man
With a story
For this land
Beaten down
Black and blue
The life
Of the radical man
Is true
Justice is my name
And I'm taking
All the blame
Of the tears
And the fears
Of the fascist
You call
lovely
Uncle Sam

My name
Is every man
From coast
to coast
That this homeland
Has made a ghost
The FBI took me in
And NPR
Made me a sin
