88 Seconds in Greensboro Lyrics

[Chorus]
Eighty-eight seconds
Is all it takes
Eighty-eight seconds
Don't make mistakes
We've seen you
We can see you

[Verse 1]
In red and blue
In black and white
Under crystal skies
In full daylight
You know it
God you know it

[Chorus]
Eighty-eight seconds (Eighty-eight seconds)
Is all it takes
In eighty-eight seconds
We don't make mistakes
We know you
Oh yes we have known you

[Verse 2]
Times are changing
But not in our street
Once we played there
Like the good times
You know it
God you know it

[Verse 3]
They're heading for
A shallow grave
With a big black cross
By a tall white house
To a place down south
We won't forget
To be stabbed in the back
By a man they met

[Outro]
In eighty-eight seconds
In Greensboro
Eighty-eight seconds
In eighty-eight seconds
In Greensboro
Eighty-eight seconds
Eighty-eight seconds
In Greensboro
In eighty-eight seconds
In Greensboro
Eighty-eight seconds
In Greensboro
Is all we take
Is all we take
