<pre><font size='+2'>I MIND MY OWN BUSINESS lyrics PETE SEEGER</font><br>I MIND MY OWN BUSINESS<br />
  by Pete Seeger<br />
  tune: I once loved a lass<br />
<br />
King Henry marched forth, a sword in his hand<br />
Two thousand horsemen all at his command<br />
In a fortnight the rivers ran red through the land<br />
The year, fifteen hundred and twenty<br />
<br />
The year is now nineteen sixty five<br />
It`s easier far to stay alive<br />
Just keep your mouth shut while the planes zoom and dive<br />
Ten thousand miles over the ocean<br />
<br />
Simon was drafted in sixty-three<br />
In sixty-four, sent over the sea<br />
Last month this letter he sent to me<br />
He said, `You won`t like what I`m saying`<br />
<br />
He said, We`ve no friends here, no hardly a one<br />
We`ve got a few generals who just want our guns<br />
But it will take more than them if we`re ever to win<br />
Why, we`ll have to flatten the country<br />
<br />
It`s my own troops I have to watch out for, he said<br />
I sleep with a pistol right under my head<br />
He wrote this last month, last week he was dead<br />
And Simon came home in a casket<br />
<br />
I mind my own business, I watch my TV<br />
Complain about taxes, but pay anyway<br />
In a civilized manner, my forefathers betray<br />
Who long ago struggled for freedom<br />
<br />
But each day a new headline screams at my bluff<br />
On TV some general says, `We must be tough`<br />
In my dreams I stare at this family I love<br />
All gutted and spattered with napalm<br />
<br />
King Henry marched forth, a sword in his hand<br />
Two thousand horsemen all at his command<br />
In a fortnight the rivers ran red through the land<br />
The year, fifteen hundred and twenty<br />
<br />
The year is now nineteen sixty five<br />
It`s easier far to stay alive<br />
Just keep your mouth shut while the planes zoom and dive<br />
Ten thousand miles over the ocean<br />

I MIND MY OWN BUSINESS
by Pete Seeger
tune: I once loved a lass

King Henry marched forth, a sword in his hand
Two thousand horsemen all at his command
In a fortnight the rivers ran red through the land
The year, fifteen hundred and twenty

The year is now nineteen sixty five
It`s easier far to stay alive
Just keep your mouth shut while the planes zoom and dive
Ten thousand miles over the ocean

Simon was drafted in sixty-three
In sixty-four, sent over the sea
Last month this letter he sent to me
He said, `You won`t like what I`m saying`

He said, We`ve no friends here, no hardly a one
We`ve got a few generals who just want our guns
But it will take more than them if we`re ever to win
Why, we`ll have to flatten the country

It`s my own troops I have to watch out for, he said
I sleep with a pistol right under my head
He wrote this last month, last week he was dead
And Simon came home in a casket

I mind my own business, I watch my TV
Complain about taxes, but pay anyway
In a civilized manner, my forefathers betray
Who long ago struggled for freedom

But each day a new headline screams at my bluff
On TV some general says, `We must be tough`
In my dreams I stare at this family I love
All gutted and spattered with napalm

King Henry marched forth, a sword in his hand
Two thousand horsemen all at his command
In a fortnight the rivers ran red through the land
The year, fifteen hundred and twenty

The year is now nineteen sixty five
It`s easier far to stay alive
Just keep your mouth shut while the planes zoom and dive
Ten thousand miles over the ocean
