Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Tin soldiers and Nixon coming
We're finally on our own
This summer, I hear the drumming
Four dead in Ohio
[Chorus]
Gotta get down to it
Soldiers are cutting us down
Should have been done long ago
What if you knew her and
Found her dead on the ground
How can you run when you know?
[Verse 2]
La, la-la-la, la-la, la-la
La, la-la-la, la-la, la
La, la-la-la, la-la, la-la
La, la-la-la, la-la, la
[Chorus]
Gotta get down to it
Soldiers are cutting us down
Should have been done long ago
What if you knew her and
Found her dead on the ground
How can you run when you know?
[Verse 3]
Tin soldiers and Nixon coming
We're finally on our own
This summer I hear the drumming
Four dead in Ohio
[Outro]
Four dead in Ohio (Four dead)
Four dead in Ohio (Four)
Four dead in Ohio (How many?)
Four dead in Ohio (How many more?)
Four dead in Ohio (Why?)
Four dead in Ohio (Oh)
Four dead in Ohio (Why?)
Four dead in Ohio (Why?)
Four dead in Ohio (Why?)
Four dead in Ohio...
