Good People

"ONE TIN SOLDIER" (The Legend of Billy Jack) words and music by Dennis Lambert and Brian Potter; Copyright © 1969 by ABC / Dunhill Music Inc.

Good People…gather around…and it all gets quiet...

No good people here…these people look like they could start a riot!

Good People are hard to find...

They’ll do anything for you…and they won’t mind.

Good People…I used to try hard to be one...

Now forget it…I’m tired to try to be one…I’m done!

Good People on this planet…Thanks for being so good to us all...

We need more Good People to help pick us up when we fall.

Better yet…Good People…get away from us…you’re not deserving;

Go…help yourself for a change…we’re not worth preserving!

Oh, Good People…why is there such a distinction between us?

It’s because we know in the end run…It is only you we can trust.

The Good People all left, and went away...

Far from the tainted ones…that had gone astray.

They formed there own civilization, and their own tribe;

To preserve the “Good People” way of life.

But, we came after them…because that’s what we do...

And there wasn’t a single Good Person left…when we were through.

Why do the wicked ones...always prevail?

Why do they always put Good People...through such travail?

When will the next “Good People” rise up once again?

When will they stop trying to be the tainted one's friend?

Good People…Who have risen up once again in the land...

It’s your turn to be free…run away as fast as you can!

The tainted ones will use you only for their own amusement;

Then, they will dispose of you…and will never repent...

But, you people never change because you are good...

And, are never treated good in return…in the way that you should!

????????????????????????????????????????????

Where have all the “Good People” gone?
