Which Side Lyrics - Standing In The Breach - Jackson Browne

You might be a young man with the mountain in his step 

In search of El Dorado, but you haven't found it yet 

Or you might be an old man with his whole life at his back 

And you can hear eternity whispering down the track 

Or maybe you're a woman, or just about to be 

And you can feel the generations swimming in your sea 

But you know that it's coming, as surely as the dawn 

The battle for the future, baby, which side are you on? 

Come on come on come on if you're coming 

Come on come on come on 

Come on come on come on if you're coming 

Which side are you on? 

Come on come on come on if you're coming 

Battle lines are drawn 

Come on come on come on if you're coming 

Which side - which side are you on?

Which side? 

The corporations attacking 

The natural world - drilling and fracking 

All done with the backing of the craven and corrupt 

Or the ones who fight 

For the Earth with all their might 

And in the name of all that's right 

Confront and disrupt 

There's a restlessness out in the street there's a question in the air 

How long if this theft goes on will our country still be here? 

People know the game is rigged even as they play 

They see their expectations slowly slip away 

They've got subsidies for billionaires, there's a bailout for the banks 

A monopoly on medicine, and a sale on armored tanks 

The whole damned country's being sold - out that revolving door 

Between Washington and Wall Street like it's one big Dollar Store

Come on come on come on if you're coming 

Come on come on come on 

Come on come on come on if you're coming 

Which side are you on? 

Come on come on come on if you're coming 

Battle lines are drawn 

Come on come on come on if you're coming 

Which side - which side are you on? 

Which side? 

The bankers and their special friends 

Who rob you time and again 

Who like to pretend they're the only game in town 

Or the people who 

Hope with everything they do 

They can build something new 

And turn this world around 

Who owns the elections? Who profits either way? 

Who ends up with all that money politicians pay? 

To be the fearless leader, to put themselves across 

To be the one entrusted with the profit and the loss 

You try hard to believe that when you cast your vote it counts 

But elections are won with money in ever larger amounts 

Take the money out of politics and maybe we might see 

This country turn back into something more like democracy 

Come on come on come on if you're coming 

Come on come on come on 

Come on come on come on if you're coming 

Which side are you on? 

Come on come on come on if you're coming 

Battle lines are drawn 

Come on come on come on if you're coming 

Which side - which side are you on?
