Lyrics
Don't you know
They're talkin' about a revolution
It sounds like a whisper
Don't you know
They're talkin' about a revolution
It sounds like a whisper
While they're standing in the welfare lines
Crying at the doorsteps of those armies of salvation
Wasting time in the unemployment lines
Sitting around waiting for a promotion
Don't you know
They're talkin' about a revolution
It sounds like a whisper
Don't you know
They're talkin' about a revolution
It sounds like a whisper
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, run,run,run,run,run,run,run,run
Oh I said you better run, run
Run,run,run,run,run,run,run,run,run,run
Yes finally the tables are starting to turn
Talkin' about a revolution
Yes finally the tables are starting to turn
Talkin' about a revolution oh no
Talkin' about a revolution oh
While they're standing in the welfare lines
Crying at the doorsteps of those armies of salvation
Wasting time in the unemployment lines
Sitting around waiting for a promotion
Don't you know
Talkin' about a revolution
It sounds like a whisper
And finally the tables are starting to turn
Talkin' about a revolution
Yes finally the tables are starting to turn
Talkin' about a revolution, oh no
Talkin' about a revolution, oh no
Talkin' about a revolution, oh no
Tracy Chapman
