Lyrics for Burnin' And Lootin' - 1976/Live At The Roxy
This morning I woke up in a curfew Oh God! I was a prisoner, too Could not recognize the faces standing over me All dressed in uniforms of brutality How many rivers do we have to cross Before we can talk to the boss? All that we get, it seems we have lost We must have really paid the cost That's why we gonna be Burnin' and a-lootin' tonight Burnin' and a-lootin' tonight To survive! Burnin' all pollution tonight Tonight! Burnin' all illusion tonight - oh! Give me the food and let me grow Let the Roots Man take a blow All them drugs gonna make you slow now It's not the music from the ghetto Weeping and a-wailin' tonight Can you just say? (Weeping and a-wailin' tonight) Oh! (Weeping and a-wailin' tonight) Yeah! (Weeping and a-wailin') tonight-i-ight (Burnin' and a-lootin' tonight) to survive (Burnin' and a-lootin' tonight) say it baby lion Burnin' all pollution tonight (burnin' all illusion) (Burnin' all illusion) tonight-i-ight Weeping and a-wailin' tonight Who can stop the tears? (Weeping and a-wailin' tonight) we suffer this lonely alone here (Weeping and a-wailin' tonight) weeping and a-wailin' (Weeping and a-wailin') tonight-i-ight
