"No Kings" lyrics

Jesse Welles & Joan Baez Lyrics

"No Kings"

No hated, no violence, no starvation, and no greed
And no kings, no kings, no kings
No lies, no bullets, no bombs, and no need
And no kings, no kings, no kings
No walls, no judgements, no oppression cowering
No kings, no kings, no kings
Every color, every culture, every language, every creed
No kings, no kings, no kings

No more dying in the clutches, no more dying underneath
No kings, no kings, no kings
No more dying for the causes, no one asked, for no one needs
No kings, no kings, no kings
To all the dignity, the love that they deserve and need
No kings, no kings, no kings
The pursuit of happiness, the right to life and liberty
And no kings, no kings, no kings

No child going hungry, for there's plenty 'nough to eat
With no kings, no kings, no kings
May I recognize your soul that you might see the soul in me
No kings, no kings, no kings
Close your eyes and listen so that you may truly see
No kings, no kings, no kings
Let the killing of my foe in need destroys a part of me
No kings, no kings, no kings

No hated, no violence, no starvation, and no greed
And no kings, no kings, no kings
