Burns audio opensource_audio Written about the Klamath Basin Crisis http://www.klamathbasincrisis.org/ Taking down the photographs We're leaving this, but we're keeping that Packing up the life that's past And headed some place new Sell it off a piece at a time Amazing the stuff that collects in time That's a dollar, and that's a dime What we don't sell we'll take downtown [Chorus] Leaving this place that I've called home for so long Seven generations come and gone I wonder if they'll sell or if they'll burn it to the ground I never thought I'd see the day my country would kill the land What am I supposed to do I didn't have much time for school My daddy taught me what he knew And that was how to farm this land The politicians and the Eco-freaks They think they know what's best, you see I guess they're schools forgot one thing Without water, crops don't grow [Repeat Chorus] Klamath Basin's running dry With nothing between the dust and the sky So take a breath and close your eyes And pray we make it through [Repeat Chorus] http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/2.5/ 2006-07-29 07:49:11 wizard.rb@gmail.com wizard.rb@gmail.com wizard.rb wizard.rb wizard.rb wizard.rb 2006-08-16 17:53:24 2006-08-21 12:51:13 2006-08-21 12:53:52 2006-08-21 12:56:46 audio http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/2.5/ Audio 2001 Brian D.
