If I were to indicate that times have changed If I were to tell you that there ain't no way Would you block my plea, would you fire on me Call the National Guard out, make your policy harder If I were to indicate that we needed reform Would you change my status and then tell me to conform Is that the due that we're granted by law Is that the freedom Thomas Jefferson saw Well, ain't it a shame That we are to blame When all we're trying to do Is get together If I were a nation with a chronic disease Would I ask another to get down on its knees So it could be true to the red, white, and blue Remember Dallas, Memphis, and Chicago, too If I were a soldier in addition to your son Would you load your rifle and then cock your gun Place them both in my hands to achieve your demands When I ask you what for, you would send me to war Well, ain't it a shame That we are to blame When all we're trying to do Is get together If I were a monument, a wreath and nothing more Would you weep upon my grave and try to end the war Or would you canonize me, say I died to be free Was I wasting my breath? Will you honor my death
