Hold Your Ground

© 2009 by Dennis L. Harrison/Jesse L. McCuin

I see our farmers being pushed around
     And blamed for every time they plow
By people from the city in their ivory towers.
     They don’t know a dog from a cow.
The same people say we can’t drill for oil;
     You know you’re going to ruin the dirt.
You can’t cut a tree; no, you can’t build a dam.
     They think you’re gonna heat up the earth.

I say, “Hold your ground!
     We need a few more people to take a stand”
Yes, you can.
     Don’t back down.
You’re in a battle,
     So you know you’ve gotta hold your ground.”

‘This Congress wants to take away our guns
     And our second amendment rights.
Our schools are in trouble; Uncle Sam’s in charge,
     We don’t dare use the name of Christ.
Some prisoners in jail are getting law degrees,
     While our taxes keep goin’ out of sight.
See our values change; they’re goin’ up in flames.
     Don’t you think you’d better join the fight?

I say, “Hold your ground!
     We need a few more people to take a stand.”
Yes, you can.
     Don’t back down.
You’re in a battle,
     So you know you’ve gotta hold your ground”

Our loss of freedom’s getting out of hand;
     Let’s band together and take back our land.

Hold your ground!
     We need a few more people to take a stand.
Yes, we can.
     Don’t back down.
You’re in a battle,
     So you know you’ve gotta…hold your ground.”

You’re in a battle,
     So you know you gotta hold your ground.
You’re in a battle
     So you know you gotta hold your ground.
