Album: Somewhere Between Heaven And Hell (1992)

Don't Drag Me Down

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

turn around
they'll try to drag you down
turn around
turn around
don't drag me down

ignorance is 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
and see them turn around

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
you're eighteen
wanna be a man
your granddaddy's in
the Klu Klux Klan
the President's men, the CIA
mafia boss whose bribes you'll pay, yeah

turn around
they'll try to put you down
turn around

turn around
they'll try to drag you down
turn around
don't drag me down
