Down by Law

Down by Law - Kevin's Song lyrics

mohammad is a little boy

growing up in a violent world

heard the guns when he was five

and above the smoke he saw the flag of israel unfurled

so what is he to think

and what is he to do?

Who set the drumbeat that he's marching to?

Now kevin he was just a lad

his brother left never to return

they said he joined the i.r.a.

and then they shot him down -- now kevin burns

so what is he to think?

And what is he tot do?

Who set the drumbeat that kevin's marching to?

Cause gunfire means funeral pyres

and then little boys pick up guns

battles rage for blood and country

and they always will -- yeah they always will

until they're home

now I am just an american boy

only know what I see or read

I see boys dying for a home

dying for a chance to breathe like you and me

so what are we to think?

And what are we to do?

Who set the drumbeat that they're marching to?

Grab a gun, toy soldiers no home to call your own
