THE KNOCKOUTS LYRICS

"The Young Will Overcome"

Take Hollywood and move it Nashville
And on my guitar I strum
Took Nashville and moved it to Pittsburgh
And there the dumb will overcome

Take Frisco and move it to Cleveland
It’s time to change the slum
Watts will go to Manhattan
And soon the dumb will overcome

Oh yes, the dumb will overcome
The young will overcome
We’ll all be rejoicing when the young we overcome

Take the bankers and make them policemen
Take the policemen and put him in his jail
And throw the army in the ocean
No wars and nothing for sale

Cause the dumb will overcome
The young will overcome
We’ll all be rejoicing when the young we overcome

Stop killing all of the wildlife
Everyone let their kids go free
Just open your eyes mister
And you can see that you can see

That the dumb will overcome
The young will overcome
We’ll all be rejoicing when the young we overcome

Soon we’ll move California
An earthquake will surely come
Valley Of death and you’ll find us
There ain’t no place else to run

Cause the dumb will overcome
The young will overcome
We’ll all be rejoicing when the young we overcome

In our minds we look for peace and freedom
We may have to do it on the run
It won’t make no difference
Cause the dumb will overcome

Yes, the dumb will overcome
