Sixty Eight Guns Lyrics by The Alarm
Clean Lyric
Paragraph Lyric
And now they're trying to take my life away
Forever young I cannot stay
On every corner, I can see them there
They don't know my name, they don't know my kind
They're after you with their promises
They're after you to sign your life away

Sixty Eight Guns will never die
Sixty Eight Guns our battle cry
Sixty Eight Guns will never die
Sixty Eight Guns our battle cry
Sixty Eight Guns, Sixty Eight Guns

For living in the backstreets that's our home from home
The painted walls are all we've ever known
The Guns Forever, that's our battle cry
It is the flag that we fly so high
For every day they try to drag us down
I cry with anger, I have done no crime
And now they're trying to take my life away   Forever young I cannot stay   On every corner, I can see them there   They don't know my name, they don't know my kind   They're after you with their promises   They're after you to sign your life away      Sixty Eight Guns will never die   Sixty Eight Guns our battle cry   Sixty Eight Guns will never die   Sixty Eight Guns our battle cry   Sixty Eight Guns, Sixty Eight Guns      For living in the backstreets that's our home from home   The painted walls are all we've ever known   The Guns Forever, that's our battle cry   It is the flag that we fly so high   For every day they try to drag us down   I cry with anger, I have done no crime
