No Champagne Socialist Lyrics - Jackson Square - Arkells

Let the record show 

It's 1964, in the city of New York 

And take the train to Queens 

And meet a Jewish family 

He's the youngest one of three 

And his brothers have left home 

And he's on the same road 

Just credits shy of a diploma 

But he wants to represent 

The struggling with rent 

But he can't live on both sides of the fence 

So he continues to insist that he's no champagne socialist

And he's not coming back 

After studying the facts 

He knows of all the problems of the past 

But he's quick to concede 

That in order to proceed 

We can't just keep on preaching what we need 

Photos 

To become a working man 

Is to live and work with them 

And this is something you can't pretend 

So he continues to insist that he's no champagne socialist 

(That he's no champagne socialist) 

(He's no champagne socialist)
