Social Distortion - Don't Drag Me Down lyrics

rate me

Children are taught to hate, parents just couldn't wait

Some are rich and some are poor, others will just suffer more

Have you ever been ashamed and felt society try to keep you down?

I begin to watch things change and see them turn around

chorus:

Turn around, they'll try to keep you down

Turn around, Turn around

Don't drag me down

Ignorance like a gun in hand, reach out to the promised land

Your history books are full of lies, media-blitz gonna dry your eyes

Have you ever been afraid, and felt society try to keep you down?

I begin to watch things change see them turn around

chorus:

Ignorance like a gun in hand

reach out to the promised land

Your history books are full of lies,

media -blitz gonna dry your eyes

You're eighteen wanna be a man

Your granddaddy's in the Ku Klux Klan

Taking two steps forward

and four steps back

Gonna go to the White House

and paint it black

chorus:
