Summer Of 68' - The Charlie Daniels Band[00:00:00]
Johnny got drafted to Vietnam[00:00:15]
To fight in the rock and roll war[00:00:18]
He came home on a long summer train[00:00:22]
Never knew what he was dyin' for[00:00:26]
Just another lesson that the world learned a little too late[00:00:30]
That's just the way it was in the summer of '68[00:00:38]
Martin got shot down in Memphis[00:00:50]
And the world went a little insane[00:00:53]
Angry people out in the streets[00:00:59]
And the cities were all in flames[00:01:01]
Just another sacrifice to prejudice evil and hate[00:01:06]
But that's just the way it was in the summer of '68[00:01:13]
The flower generation thought that they could change the world[00:01:22]
They got lost somewhere along the way[00:01:30]
You can't change the world if you don't face reality[00:01:38]
Turnin' on and droppin' out just ain't what life is all about[00:01:45]
Some folks burned their draft cards[00:01:52]
And some folks broke the rules[00:01:56]
Some went off to Canada and some went off to school[00:02:00]
And some folks blew their minds so bad[00:02:07]
They couldn't even concentrate[00:02:11]
But that's just the way it was in the summer of '68[00:02:15]
The world just keeps on spinnin' and the years keep rushin' by[00:03:00]
Evil never takes a holiday[00:03:08]
Winds of war keep blowin'[00:03:15]
And the left still hates the right[00:03:18]
Things are really gettin' crazy[00:03:23]
Save the whales and kill the babies[00:03:26]
The sun was shining and the sky was blue[00:03:30]
On that bright September day[00:03:33]
When death came in on silver wings[00:03:37]
Things wouldn't ever be the same[00:03:41]
Just another sacrifice to prejudice evil and hate[00:03:45]
And that's just the way it was in the summer of '68[00:03:53]
In the summer of '68[00:04:03]
In the summer of '68[00:04:11]
