2 Buffalo Springfield – “For What It’s Worth” 1967
There's something happening here. What it is ain't exactly clear There's a man with a gun over there Telling me I got to beware Chorus: I think it's time we stop, children, what's that sound Everybody look what's going down There's battle lines being drawn. Nobody's right if everybody's wrong. Young people speaking their minds are getting so much resistance from behind. What a field-day for the heat. A thousand people in the street singing songs and carrying signs Mostly say, hooray for our side. Paranoia strikes deep, into your life it will creep. It starts when you're always afraid. You step out of line, the man come and take you away We better stop, hey, what's that sound Chorus You say you want a revolution Well you know We'd all want to change the world You tell me that it's evolution Well you know We'd all want to change the world But when you talk about destruction Don't you know that you can count me out Don't you know it's gonna be alright [x3] You say you got a real solution Well you know We'd all want to see the plan You ask me for a contribution Well you know We're all doing what we can But if you want money for people with minds that hate All I can tell you is brother you'll have to wait Don't you know it's gonna be alright [x4] You say you'll change the constitution Well you know We'd all love to change your head You tell me it's the institution Well you know You better free your mind instead But if you go carrying pictures of Chairman Mao You ain't going to make it with anyone anyhow Don't you know know it's gonna be alright [x3] Alright [x7] The Beatles – “Revolution”

3 “Too Many Martyrs” By Phil Ochs
Like Emmett Till and thousands more whose names we'll never know But deep inside they both knew what it took to bring him down They tried to burn his home and they beat him to the ground And they laid him in his grave while the bugle sounded clear While we waited for the future for freedom through the land And the blood upon his jacket, left a brand upon his mind His name was Medgar Evers and he walked his road alone It struck the heart of every man when Evers fell and died He saw his friend a hanging and his color was his crime He slowly squeezed the trigger, the bullet left his side The country gained a killer and the country lost a man As Evers stepped out from his car into the rifle sight The killer waited by his home, hidden by the night Too many lies, too many empty words were said Laid him in his grave when the victory was near A boy of 14 years got a taste of southern law In the state of Mississippi many years ago Too many times for too many angry men Too many martyrs and too many dead Oh, let it never be again “Too Many Martyrs” By Phil Ochs

5 Scott McKenzie – “San Francisco” 1967
I'm just a typical American boy from a typical American town I believe in God and Senator Dodd and keeping old Castro down And when it came my time to serve I knew better dead than red But when I got to my old draft board, buddy, this is what I said: Chorus: Sarge, I'm only eighteen, I got a ruptured spleen And I always carry a purse I got eyes like a bat, my feet are flat, and my asthma's getting worse think of my career, my sweetheart dear, and my poor old invalid aunt. Besides, I ain't no fool, I'm a goin' to school, and I'm working in a defense plant I've got a dislocated disc and a racked up back I'm allergic to flowers and bugs. And when the bombshell hits, I get epileptic fits and I'm addicted to a thousand drugs. I got the weakness woes, and I can't touch my toes I can hardly reach my knees. And if the enemy came close to me I'd probably start to sneeze. I hate Chou En Lai, and I hope he dies, but one thing you gotta see: That someone's gotta go over there and that someone isn't me. So I wish you well, Sarge, give 'em Hell Yeah, Kill me a thousand or so. And if you ever get a war without blood and gore I'll be the first to go. Phil Ochs – “Draft Dodger Rag” (chorus) Scott McKenzie – “San Francisco” If you're going to San Francisco Be sure to wear some flowers in your hair If you're going to San Francisco You're gonna meet some gentle people there Chorus: For those who come to San Francisco Summertime will be a love-in there In the streets of San Francisco Gentle people with flowers in their hair All across the nation such a strange vibration People in motion There's a whole generation with a new explanation People in motion people in motion Chorus:

6 “I Ain't Marching Anymore”
Fighting soldiers from the sky Fearless men who jump and die Men who mean just what they say The brave men of the Green Beret Chorus: Silver wings upon their chest These are men, America's best One hundred men will test today But only three win the Green Beret Trained to live off nature's land Trained in combat, hand-to-hand Men who fight by night and day Courage peak from the Green Berets Chorus Sergeant Barry Sadler – “The Ballad of the Green Berets” Back at home a young wife waits Her Green Beret has met his fate He has died for those oppressed Leaving her his last request Put silver wings on my son's chest Make him one of America's best He'll be a man they'll test one day Have him win the Green Beret When I saw the cities burning I knew that I was learning Now look at all we've won with the saber and the gun For I marched to the battles of the German trench I heard many men lying, I saw many more dying For I flew the final mission in the Japanese sky Oh, I marched to the battle of New Orleans For I stole California from the Mexican land In a war that was bound to end all wars United Fruit screams at the Cuban shore It's always the old to lead us to the war Oh, I must have killed a million men At the end of the early British war And now they want me back again Set off the mighty mushroom roar When they close the missile plants The young land started growing The young blood started flowing For I've killed my share of Indians I was there at the Little Big Horn Now the labor leader's screamin' Fought in the bloody Civil War Call it, Peace, or call it, Treason But I ain't marching anymore In a thousand different fights Yes, I even killed my brothers That I ain't marching anymore Call it, Love, or call it, Reason No, I ain't marching anymore It's always the young to fall Tell me is it worth it all And so many others “I Ain't Marching Anymore” By Phil Ochs

For the sun to rot, for the trees to drop, Here is a strange and bitter crop. “Strange Fruit Lyrics” Strange fruit hanging from the poplar trees. Scent of magnolias, sweet and fresh, By Billie Holiday Black bodies swinging in the southern breeze,

13 Sergeant Barry Sadler – “The Ballad of the Green Berets” 1966
Fighting soldiers from the sky Fearless men who jump and die Men who mean just what they say The brave men of the Green Beret Chorus: Silver wings upon their chest These are men, America's best One hundred men will test today But only three win the Green Beret Trained to live off nature's land Trained in combat, hand-to-hand Men who fight by night and day Courage peak from the Green Berets Chorus Back at home a young wife waits Her Green Beret has met his fate He has died for those oppressed Leaving her his last request Put silver wings on my son's chest Make him one of America's best He'll be a man they'll test one day Have him win the Green Beret When the death count gets higher You that build the death planes I can see through your masks. You that build all the bombs You that never done nothin' And you turn and run farther And I see through your brain Like I see through the water Then you set back and watch You've thrown the worst fear You might say that I'm young And you hide from my eyes But I see through your eyes You might say I'm unlearned Though I'm younger than you But there's one thing I know That even Jesus would never Come you masters of war You that build all the guns You that hide behind walls You that hide behind desks You put a gun in my hand When the fast bullets fly. That runs down my drain. You fasten all the triggers You hide in your mansion' You ain't worth the blood I just want you to know You play with my world A world war can be won You want me to believe As young people's blood Flows out of their bodies And is buried in the mud. That can ever be hurled For threatening my baby That runs in your veins. Like it's your little toy For the others to fire Fear to bring children Unborn and unnamed How much do I know But build to destroy Forgive what you do. You lie and deceive To talk out of turn Like Judas of old Into the world And I'll watch while you're lowered When your death takes its toll Will never buy back your soul. Let me ask you one question And your death'll come soon And I'll stand over your grave 'Til I'm sure that you're dead. Will it buy you forgiveness Is your money that good Do you think that it could All the money you made And I hope that you die I will follow your casket Down to your deathbed In the pale afternoon I think you will find “Masters of War” By Bob Dylan
