Side O' The Road Lyrics - Creedence Clearwater Revival

Last night 

I saw a fire burning on 

The palace lawn. 

O'er the land 

The humble subjects watched in mixed 

Emotion. 

[Chorus:] 

Who is burnin'? 

Who is burnin'? 

Effigy. 

Who is burnin'? 

Who is burnin'? 

Effigy. 

Last night 

I saw the fire spreadin' to 

The palace door. 

Silent majority 

Weren't keepin' quiet 

Anymore. 

[Chorus] 

Last night 

I saw the fire spreadin' to 

The country side. 

In the mornin' 

Few were left to watch 

The ashes die. 

[Chorus] 

Why? 

Why? 

Why? 

Effigy.
