Daily News lyrics

DAILY NEWS
(Tom Paxton)

Civil rights leaders are a pain in the neck
Can`t hold a candle to Chang Kai Shek
How do I know? I read it in the Daily News
Ban the bombers are afraid of a fight
Peace hurts business and that ain`t right
How do I know? I read it in the Daily News

Daily News, daily blues
Pick up a copy any time you choose
Seven little pennies in the newsboy`s hand
And you ride right along to never, never land

We got to bomb Castro, got to bomb him flat
He`s too damn successful and we can`t risk that
How do I know? I read it in the Daily News
There`s millions of commies in the freedom fight
Yelling for Lenin and civil rights
How do I know? I read it in the Daily News

Seems like the whole damn world`s gone wrong
Saint Joe McCarthy is dead and gone
How do I know? I read it in the Daily News
Don`t try to make me change my mind with facts
To hell with the graduated income tax
How do I know? I read it in the Daily News

John Paul Getty is just plain folks
The UN charter is a cruel hoax
How do I know? I read it in the Daily News
J. Edgar Hoover is the man of the hour
All he needs is just a little more power
How do I know? I read it in the Daily News
