D[G]on't you [Cadd9]know
[Em]They're talkin' about [D]a revolu[G]tion
It[Cadd9]sounds [Em]like [D]a whisper
Don't you know
They're talkin' about a revolution
It sounds like a whisper
{eoc}
While they're standing in the welfare lines
Crying at the doorsteps of those armies of salvation
Wasting time in the enemployment lines
Sitting around waiting for a promotion
{c:chorus}
Poor people gonna rise up
And get their share
Poor people gonna 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
