Lyrics
Fightin' side of me: merle haggard
Written by merle haggard
(?Tree publishing company.)
From "songs I'll always sing", ?1976, capitol records
I hear people talkin' bad
About the way they have to live here in this country
Harpin' on the wars we fight
An' gripin' 'bout the way things oughta be
I don't mind 'em switchin' sides
An' standin' up for things that they believe in
When they're runnin' down our country, man
They're walkin' on the fightin' side of me
They're walkin' on the fightin' side of me
Runnin' down the way of life
Our fightin' men have fought and died to keep
If you don't love it, leave it:
Let this song that I'm singin' be a warnin'
When you're runnin' down our country, hoss
You're walkin' on the fightin' side of me
I read about some squirrely guy
Who claims, that he just don't believe in fightin'
An' I wonder just how long
The rest of us can count on bein' free
They love our milk an' honey
But they preach about some other way of livin'
When they're runnin' down our country, man
They're walkin' on the fightin' side of me
They're walkin' on the fightin' side of me
Runnin' down the way of life
Our fightin' men have fought and died to keep
If you don't love it, leave it:
Let this song that I'm singin' be a warnin'
When you're runnin' down my country, man
You're walkin' on the fightin' side of me
You're walkin' on the fightin' side of me
Runnin' down a way of life
Our fightin' men have fought and died to keep
If you don't love it, leave it:
Let this song that I'm singin' be a warnin'
When you're runnin' down my country, hoss
You're walkin' on the fightin' side of me
