The Minus 5 - John Barleycorn Must Live lyrics

Give me liberty or give me bread I seek my freedom where ever I must In younger times, San Pablo Bay Tomorrow it might be there up across the railroad tress I leap, I land and gather what's left It never is quite so much as I think I pick myself up, lay many down Yeah this could be the horse that might pull me out of this sink But I'll still waste the day Everybody tells me that it couldn't end up any other way There is a sermon Board of complaint A congregation, sinner to saint Where we are called, all called to forgive The congregation's shouting John Barleycorn must live John Barleycorn must live John Barleycorn must live In New York City my work is well done In subway and street and black limousine When I wake up it's not enough Fifty-seven to fifty-eight or somewhere in-between I wasn't invited but came just the same And now the same privileges extended to you I will be there, for sick and blame Yeah I'll be there in China town falling down Grand Avenue Oh I won't waste a way I'm not the one who wanted to see it through another day There is a sermon Board of complaint A congregation, sinner to saint Where we are called, all called to forgive The congregation's shouting John Barleycorn must live John Barleycorn must live John Barleycorn must live Oh I won't waste away Everybody tells me that it couldn't end up any other way There is a sermon Board of complaint A congregation, sinner to saint Where we are called, all called to forgive The congregation's shouting John Barleycorn must live John Barleycorn must live John Barleycorn must live Give me liberty or give me bread I wasn't invited but came just the same I leap, I land and gather what's left I wasn't invited but came just the same I wasn't invited but came just the same I wasn't invited but came just the same I wasn't invited but came just the same I wasn't invited but came just the same
