Don't you know
They're talkin' bout a revolution
It sounds like a whisper
Don't you know
They're talkin' bout a revolution
It sounds like a whisper

While they're standing in the welfare lines
crying at the doorsteps of those armies of salavation
Wasting time in the unemployment lines
Sitting around waiting for a promotion

Poor peoplegonna rise up
and get their share
Poor peoplegonna rise up
And take what's theirs

Don't you know
you better run, run, run...
Oh I said you better
Run, run, run...

Finally the tables are starting to turn
Talkin' bout a revolution
