Lyrics The Fightin' Side Of Me - Live At The Philadelphia Civic Center/1970 - Merle Haggard , The Strangers



I hear people talkin′ bad
About the way we have to live here in this country
Harpin' on the wars we fight
An′ gripin' 'bout the way things oughta be
An′ I don′t mind 'em switchin′ sides
An' standin′ up for things they believe in
When they're runnin′ down my country, man
They're walkin' on the fightin′ side of me
Yeah, walkin′ on the fightin' side of me
Runnin′ down the way of life
Our fightin' men have fought and died to keep
If you don′t love it, leave it
Let this song I'm singin′ be a warnin'
You're runnin′ down my country, man
You′re walkin' on the fightin′ side of me
I read about some squirrelly guy
Who claims, he just don't believe in fightin′
An' I wonder just how long
The rest of us can count on bein′ free
They love our milk an' honey
But they preach about some other way of livin'
When they′re runnin′ down my country, hoss
They're walkin′ on the fightin' side of me
Yeah, walkin′ on the fightin' side of me
Runnin′ down the way of life
Our fightin' men have fought and died to keep
If you don't love it, leave it
Let this song I′m singin′ be a warnin'
But you′re runnin' down my country, man
You′re walkin' on the fightin′ side of me
Yeah, walkin' on the fightin' side of me
Runnin′ down the way of life
Our fightin′ men have fought and died to keep
Yeah if you don't love it, leave it
Let this song I′m singin' be a warnin′
And you're runnin′ down my country, man
You're walkin' on the fightin′ side of me
