about
A cover of this classic track written by US Country Rock maverick Steve Earle. This summed up exactly how I felt after the 2015 election – facing another 5 years of Tory austerity measures and further attacks on the weak and the poor. It raises the hope of new beginnings and tells us that things need not be this way if like minded people join together and force a change for the better.
lyrics
The Revolution Starts Now
I was walkin' down the street
In the town where I was born
I was movin' to a beat
That I'd never felt before
So I opened up my eyes
And I took a look around
I saw it written 'cross the sky
The revolution starts now
Yeah, the revolution starts now
The revolution starts now
When you rise above your fear
And tear the walls around you down
The revolution starts here
Where you work and where you play
Where you lay your money down
What you do and what you say
The revolution starts now
Yeah the revolution starts now
Yeah the revolution starts now
In your own backyard
In your own hometown
So what you doin' standin' around?
Just follow your heart
The revolution starts now
Last night I had a dream
That the world had turned around
And all our hopes had come to be
And the people gathered 'round
They all brought what they could bring
And nobody went without
And I learned a song to sing
The revolution starts now
