Burnin’ and Lootin’ (Live)

[Verse 1]
Hey, this morning I woke up in a curfew
O God, I was a prisoner, too
Could not recognize the faces standing over me
All dressed in uniforms of brutality
How many rivers do we have to cross
Before we can talk to the boss… I’m singing
All we got, it seems we have lost
We must have really paid the cost

[Chorus]
That’s why we’re gonna be burnin' and a-lootin' tonight
(Burnin’ and a lootin’ tonight)
We’re burnin' and a-lootin' tonight
(Burnin’ and a lootin’ tonight)
Burnin' all pollution tonight
(Burnin’ all pollution tonight)
Oh, oh we’re burnin’…
(Burnin’ all illusion tonight)

[Verse 2]
Oh, give me the food and let me grow
Let the Root Man take a blow
I say, ‘cause all them drugs gonna make you slow now
It's not the music from the ghetto. Hey

[Chorus]
The weeping and a-wailing tonight
(Weeping and a-wailing tonight)
Weeping and a-wailing tonight
(Weeping and a-wailing tonight)
Lordy, Lordy, Lordy, Lordy…hey!
(Weeping and a-wailing tonight)
(Weeping and a-wailing tonight)

[Bridge]
How many river, how many river
Do we have to cross, talk to the boss
And one more if all we got we have lost
We must have really paid a cost
That’s why we’re gonna be

[Chorus]
(Burnin’ and a lootin’ tonight)
Burnin’ and a lootin’
(Burnin’ and a lootin’ tonight)
Lordy, Lordy, Lordy
(Burning all pollution tonight)
Burning all pollution tonight
Burning all…
(Burning all illusions tonight)
(Weeping and a-wailing tonight)
Weeping and a-wailing tonight
(Weeping and a-wailing tonight)
Weeping and a-wailing….Lordy, Lordy, Lordy
(Weeping and a-wailing tonight)
Who can stop the tears tonight
(Weeping and a-wailing tonight)
Stop weeping all those tears tonight
(Weeping and a-wailing tonight)
Eh
