If you sing me a song, you know I'll come running
Whistle me that tune that brings a tear to my eye
The past is now behind us, sing songs about the future
Share a drink, smile a bit, my darling don't you cry

And if you sing me a song, you know that I'll come running
Whistle me the tune that brings a tear to my eye
Money in our pockets, and food is on our table
Stand up and talk straight, don't waste the time today

Don't fall down, you will never get up
Don't fall down, and if you sing me a song
Sing a song of Revolution

If you sing me a song, you know I'll come running
Whistle me the tune from a childhood deprived
The past is now a picture, those memories are golden
We ain't got much, but it's real, and our trouble is behind
If you sing me a song, sing a song of revolution
