Tracy Chapman

Talking About A Revolution

Dont you know where talkin about a revolution
it sounds like a whisper
Dont you know where talkin about a revolution
it sounds like a whisper
While they're standing in the welfare lines
Crying at the doorsteps of those armies of salvation
Wasting time in unemployment lines
Sitting around waiting for a promotion
Don't you know you're talking about a revolution
It sounds like a whisper
Poor people are gonna rise up And get their share
Poor people are gonna rise up And take what's theirs
Don't you know you better run, run, run, run, run, run, run, run, run, run,
run, run, run
Oh I said you better run, run, run, run, run, run, run, run, run, run, run,
run, run
Finally the tables are starting to turn
Talking about a revolution
Finally the tables are starting to turn
Talking about a revolution oh no
Talking about a revolution oh no
While they're standing in the welfare lines
Crying at the doorsteps of those armies of salvation
Wasting time in unemployment lines
Sitting around waiting for a promotion
Don't you know you're talking about a revolution
It sounds like a whisper
Finally the tables are starting to turn
Talking about a revolution
Finally the tables are starting to turn
Talking about a revolution oh no
Talking about a revolution oh no
Talking about a revolution oh no
Hope you enjoyed the song
