If you utter a sound or make a move, we'll kill you

Then they gathered around me
C
One man took my right arm

And another man took my left

When the third man grabbed the front of my coat

Then thrown in to an automobile we go
Chorus:
C A
Oh I wish I, I could describe
G
The terror in that 20 mile ride.
C A
Oh I wish I, I could describe
G
The terror in the beautiful California moonlight
G
In an auto with six man and a chauffeur
G
Yeah these Christian patriots
C
They put fingers in my eyes and nose
G
As they subjected me to torture
D
Yeah the torture that a god fearing man
G
Is capable of conceiving.
Chorus.

G
You won't kiss the American flag
C
Well by god we'll make you

We'll ram it down your throat
G
Sing the Star Spangled Banner with feeling
G
They put their autos together
G
So the lamp set a sickly stage light

Fourteen defenders of this country

All commanding me to undress

They poured tar over my body and hair
G
In the absence of feathers they rubbed sagebrush instead
Chorus.
