Letra
LETRA (VER LETRA CON ACORDES)
Intro:
Verse:
John Oaks is in the neighborhood
Protecting all the trees
He s the master of irrigation
And he knows what he sees
Verse:
Grape farmers watering everywhere
Pipes running where they please
John sees his laws are broken
Trees drowning where they breathe
Verse:
Now John used to be a mellow man
Drinking Chai and smoking weed
Ain t no one in the county
Ever see d whatever he see d
John Oaks,
John Oaks,
John Oaks,
John Oaks,
Verse:
Old John rides in his pickup
With rakes and friends in the back
Workers he takes with him
Then he drives them all back
Verse:
To protect them from the politicians
Using them to get ahead
Preying on the people
Trying to get inside their heads
Verse:
John Oaks is really stand-up
He won t take shit lying down
He calls it like he sees it
And he puts his money down
John Oaks,
John Oaks,
John Oaks,
John Oaks,
Verse:
One day at the demonstration
John Oaks was standing up
He arrived there at the location
In his old pickup truck
Verse:
Took a rake in his hand
And his workers by his side
Stood there waiting for his turn
To speak and turn the tide
Verse:
When he found himself surrounded
By police everywhere
They tried to take his workers to jail
When he grabbed one by his hair
John Oaks,
John Oaks,
John Oaks,
John Oaks,
Verse:
Shots rang out and people yelled
As the police took control
Shot a black man right where he fell
With a sniper on the knoll
Verse:
John Oaks saw law and order
Was leading him astray
Tried to get back in his pickup
With his workers to get away
Verse:
That s when the police moved in
And stood there in his way
John started up his pickup
And that was his last day
John Oaks,
John Oaks,
John Oaks,
John Oaks,
Instrumental/Solo:
Verse:
They said he had a pistol
When the old pickup backfired
And shot him there behind the wheel
And then John Oaks expired
Verse:
The workers grabbed the rakes
And that s all that I can say
They went to the cemetery
And they stay there to this day
John Oaks,
John Oaks,
John Oaks,
John Oaks,
John Oaks
OUTRO:
John Oaks,
