Lyrics

If they saw me riding in long hair flying in the wind
Would they love me down in shreveport today
If I only sang the blues, and wore patent leather shoes
Would they love me down in nashville today
If they saw me talk with ease to the drunkard and the thieves
Would they love me out in wichita today
Would the rich me think it's funny, if I said give up your money
Would they love me up on wall street today
If I made the wine from water, gave it to there sons and daughters
What would the saints in salt lake city say
If I talked of brotherhood walking through there neighborhoods
Would they love me up in boston today
If I said love those how use you, and forgive those how abuse you
And turn the other cheek what would you say
If you saw me riding in long hair flying in the wind
Would you love me down in
Would you love me down in
