Uncle George - Steel Pulse

This One’s in memory of Uncle George

We brethrens aware, we realise what you stood for

(4) George Jackson Soledad brother

Malicious unjust society

He became revolutionary

(2) George Jackson Soledad brother

No Three Cheers For Uncle George

Baton Clap but Lord Truncheon make no applause

Weathered face of distortion behind iron bars

Sights of darkness and torture and condemned

Fate that he saw

The framed him Yes they framed him

Backraw back up George

Right now in the morgue

He’s rebelling for a cause

Eleven years he’s beared the scars of injustice yeh

Deeper scars remain of solitary confinement

No you can’t trust the fuzz

He only stole seventy dollars

He was advised to plead guilty

He got not one year but life

For demanding his rights, George

(2) George Jackson Soledad brother

Malicious unjust society

He became revolutionary, George Jackson

Soledad brother

Prevented, Prohibited, from pardon and parole

Just a foolish youth, from backraw man he stole

Now he lies there rotting in a morbid morgue

The Fuzz claimed he suffered a disease call

Rebelling for a cause (4)

O Lord them got George

Them shot George

Help George

(4) George Jackson Soledad brother

Malicious unjust society

He became revolutionary, Jackson

(2) Confinement confinement

George, George Jackson
