From the recording Long, Long Time
Lyrics
Long Long Time - Dr. Rock
(They say) It’s been a long long time since I’ve been gone
Been a long long time since I’ve been gone
I’ve been around, underground
I’ve been around, underground
I raised my head in Germany
Governed with consent of the majority
They hid their eyes, from my lies
In the light of day, saw the bodies piled
Stuck around long after slavery
In the land of the brave and the home of the free
Just try to vote, without an ID
And if you’re stopped, don’t be minority
We’ve been down this road
Time and time again
While history awaits
For a few good men
Lead
Sunk my fangs into mother earth
Sucked her dry for all she’s worth
Precious lives, land sea and sky
Taken for profit, hear them cry
I’ve moved on to bloodless crime
Turning markets on a dime
You may have a house, money in the bank
I make a killing, you’re in the tank
Chorus
Lead
They say it’s been a long long time since I’ve been gone
Been a long long time since I’ve been gone
I’m still around, look around
I’m still around, look around
In the light of day, I’m still around
Can you see my face, I’m still around
