Band Of The Hand - Bob Dylan/The Heartbreakers
It's Hell time man
It's Hell time man
It's Hell time man
It's Hell time man
Down these streets the fools rule
There's no freedom or self respect
A knife's point or a trip to the joint
Is about all you can expect
They kill people here
Who stand up for their rights
The system's just too damned corrupt
It's always the same
The name of the game
Is who do you know higher up
Well
It's Hell time man
It's Hell time man
It's Hell time man
It's Hell time man
The blacks and the whites
The idiotic the exotic
Wealth is a filthy rag
So erotic so unpatriotic
So wrapped up in the American flag
Witchcraft scum exploiting the dumb
Turning children into punks and slaves
Whose heroes and healers are rich d**e dealers
Who should be put in their graves
Tell the truth now
It's Hell time man
Well lookie here honey
It's Hell time man
It's Hell time man
It's Hell time man
Listen to me Mr Pussyman
This might be your last night in a bed so soft
We're not pimps on the make
Politicians on the take
You can't pay us off
We're gonna blow up your home of Voodoo
And watch it burn without any regret
We got the power we're the new government
You just don't know it yet
Help me now
It's Hell time man
Ah bring it to me honey
It's Hell time man
For all of my brothers from Vietnam
And my uncles from World War II
I'd like to say that it's countdown time now
And we're gonna do what the law should do
And for you pretty baby
I know you've seen it all
I know your story is too painful to share
One day though you'll be talking in your sleep
And when you do
I wanna be there
Yeah
It's Hell time man
Be strong baby
It's Hell time man
Won't take long baby
Band of the hand
Ah let me tell you now
It's Hell time man
The war is here honey
Band of the hand
Ah go ahead now
It's Hell time man
Be strong baby
Band of the hand
It won't be long honey
It's Hell time man
Be strong baby
