Paroles de Fiddle Or A Gun

times are hard, the old man said
backs against the wall
a young man isn't worth a damn
who will not heed the call
the boys are going underground
buckle down and hide
pin these colours to your heart
lay your toys aside
and it's time to choose -- do I have to choose?
it's a peoples war that must be won --
I put down the fiddle
they gave me a gun
some got scared & some got bought
some got blown away
some got wise & some got taught
to fight another day
but the price that we had really paid
I didn't see it then
march until your feet are sore
you never dance again
and it's time to choose -- do I have to choose?
it's a peoples war that must be won --
I put down the fiddle
they gave me a gun
and it's time to choose -- do I have to choose?
it's a peoples war that must be won --
I put down the fiddle
they gave me a gun
