Lyrics
Well I don't give a damn
about My Uncle Sam
Cause My Uncle Sam
Don't give a damn
about me
Can't you see
about Me
No I don't give a damn about My Uncle Sam
Cause My Uncle sam don't give a damn about me
In the great sixties
We had Love and Peace
We didn't hurt no One
Cause we was having fun
And then Vietnam
Some never come home
They gave their awe
all they got was a wall
No I don't give a damn about My Uncle Sam
Cause My Uncle Sam Don't give a damn about Me
can't you see
We have to look back
Now We have Iraq
it makes you want to cry
Cause this war is a lie
and our troop aren't alone
We want them all to come home
Can't you see
It's not about Me
no I don't give a damn about My Uncle Sam
Cause My Uncle Sam don't give a damn about Me
We to rearrange, We to vote for change
We need to throw the bums out
We need to show our clout
and vote the common man
Take back our land
and be free like you and Me
And Yes I do give a damn about my fellow man
cause My fellow Man give a damn about Me
Yes I do give a damn about My fellow man
Cause My fellow man he give a damn about Me
I Pleadge Allegiance to the Flag
No I don't give a damn
about My Uncle Sam
Cause My Uncle Sam don't give a damn about Me
