Laura Nyro - "Save the Country (Mono, Single Version)" Lyrics

Come on people, come on children
Come on down to the Glory river
Gonna wash you up and wash you down
Gonna lay the devil down, gonna lay that devil down

Come on people, come on children
There's a king at the Glory river
And the precious king, he loved the people to sing
Babes in the blinkin' sun sang, "We shall overcome"

I got fury in my soul
Fury's gonna take me to the glory goal
In my mind I can't study war no more

Save the people, save the children, save the country
Save the country now

Come on people, come on children
Come on down to the Glory river
Gonna wash you up and wash you down
Gonna lay the devil down, gonna lay that devil down

Come on people, sons and mothers
Keep the dream of the two young brothers
Gonna take that dream and ride that dove

We could build the dream with love, I know
We could do the dream with love, I know
We could do the dream with love, children

We could build the dream with love, oh people
We could build the dream with love, I know
We could build the dream with love

I got fury, I got fury, I got fury, I got fury in my soul
Gonna take me to the glory goal
In my mind I can't study war no more

Save the people, save the children, save the country
Everybody save the country, save the country
Save the country, save the country now

Save the people, save the children, save the country
Come on down to the Glory river
