Red And Blue

I read the New York times 

It's all a guy can do 

It's there in black and white  

It's there in red and blue 

Red and blue 

 

I watch the TV news 

It makes it all so clear 

Might be opposing views 

But they don't live round here 

Live round here 

 

This ain't no Hollywood 

This ain't no rodeo 

This ain't a birthday party too 

There is no open seating  

There's just a table for two 

Red and blue  

 

I've been a worrier 

My whole life through 

When folks get fired up 

To see what they can do 

They can do 

 

I've seen the pressure mount 

I've seen the body count 

There's little we can do 

There's no room for hope and glory  

When there's just red and blue 

Red and blue 

 

This ain't no motion picture 

This ain't no Hollywood 

It's just a nightmare coming true 

It's there in black and white 

It' there in red and blue 

 

Red and blue
