Lyrics:

John Brown killed five slave holders by the Pottawatomie creek
John Brown killed five slave holders by the Pottawatomie creek
Cut them down with his switch board but he let the slaves go free

Good people of Missouri thought John Brown was insane
Good people of Missouri thought John Brown was insane
Meanwhile in their back yards they had human beings in chains

John Brown rose up early in the morning before the sun could rise
He had 200 rifles riding by his side
He said, "Now don't you weep now, Mary
Don't you weep for me
Going down to Harper's ferry, the US armory"

Oh Kansas bloody Kansas
What lies buried in your name. How much more blood must be shed before we wash away the shame
Oh someone tell me how long how long must we endure this sacrifice
Oh Kansas bloody Kansas someone tell me When will this suffice?

John Brown
They hung him and they laid him in his grave
John Brown
They hung him and they laid him in his grave
John Brown's lies a-moulderin'
But his spirit walks today

Give the guns [to the people]
Give the power [to the people]
Give the freedom [to the people]
Give the rights [to the people]
Gonna rise up [with the people]
Gonna march [with the people]
Gonna fight [for the people]
Liberate [all the people]
Freedom now [freedom now]
Freedom now [freedom now]
Freedom now [freedom now]
Freedom now [freedom now]
Freedom now [freedom now]
Freedom now [freedom now]
Give the guns [to the people]
Give the power [to the people]
Give the freedom [to the people]
Give the rights [to the people]
Gonna rise up [with the people]
Gonna march [with the people]
Gonna fight [for the people]
Liberate [all the people]
Freedom now [freedom now]
Freedom now [freedom now]
Freedom now [freedom now]
Freedom now [freedom now]
