MOUNTAINS COMING DOWN

January 24, 2009 - Saturday

This is a call to the great songwriters of the 60's and 70's to respond to MTR. I plan to sing it Tuesday at a planned protest in Boone county....Fire and Rain
T. Paige
I ain’t seen fire and I ain’t seen rain
but I seen the mountains coming down
No, I ain’t seen fire and I ain’t seen rain
See the mountains coming down
Brother Taylor where are you now?
Brother Taylor are you with me now?
See the mountains coming down.
How many dead in Ohio?
See the mountains coming down
Massey why'd you build that coal silo near a school, like a fool
see the mountains coming down
Brother Young where are you now
Brother Young are you with me now?
See the mountains coming down?
Something happening, happening here
See the mountains coming down
Goin down now for many a year
Mountains coming down
Brother Stills where are you now
Brother Stills are you with me now
See the mountains coming down.
How many years can a mountain exist?
See the mountains coming down
This land was YOUR land before it was his
See the mountains coming down
Brother Dylan where are you now
Brother Guthrie are you with me now?
See the mountains coming down.
