"Battle Hymn Of The Album" lyrics

"Battle Hymn Of The Album"

They say get down on the ground
They say get down on the ground
They say get down on the ground
They say get down on the ground

Stop resisting, stop resisting

Get down on the ground
They say get down on the ground

But you you can't stop this resistance
Nowhere to go now but the distance

John Brown's body may be dead and gone
But John Brown soldiers are still marching on
Said John Brown's body may be dead and gone
John Brown soldier still marching on

I've been singing this song since I don't know when
I never get tired I could sing it again
They got the sound off one two
They got the sound off three four
You gotta sing a little louder than you did before

Said John Brown's body may be dead and gone
John Brown soldiers still marching on
John Brown's body may be dead and gone
I'm a John Brown soldier still marching on

John Brown's body may be dead and gone
I'm a John Brown soldier still marching on
Said John Brown's body may be dead and gone
A John Brown soldier still marching on
John Brown's body may be dead and gone
I'm a John Brown soldier still marching on
