The Minute Men (Are Turning in Their Graves)

(Harlan Howard)
 They march in lines and carry signs protesters one and all
 They'd rather go to prison than to heed their country's call
 Get out of here get out of there let's have an end to war
 I'm glad they weren't around to say get out of Valley Forge.
 The Minute Men are turnin' in their graves
 Washington and Jefferson are cryin' tears of shame
 To see these men who'd rather live as slaves
 The Minute Men are turnin' in their graves.
 What's happened to our heritage what's happen to our pride
 Since when do free Americans pull for the other side
 Did we send food to Hitler's troops or praise the enemy
 Did all our children die in vain defending liberty.
 The Minute Men are turnin' in their graves
 Washington and Jefferson are cryin' tears of shame
 To see these men who'd rather live as slaves
 The Minute Men are turnin' in their graves.
 I can't condemn the man who feels that taking life is wrong
 But I fail to understand the man that won't defend his home
 Dear Lord I've got one little prayer I pray in years to come
 Don't ever let those kind of people serve in Washington
 The Minute Men are turnin' in their graves
 Washington and Jefferson are cryin' tears of shame
 To see these men who'd rather live as slaves
 The Minute Men are turnin' in their graves.
 Oh, the Minute Men are turnin' in their graves.
 Oh, the Minute Men are turnin' in their graves...
