- Manic Street Preachers
- Album:
- Know Your Enemy

Say what you want Say what you want A voice pure - a vision so clear I gotta learn to live like you Learn to sing like you Now let the freedom train come zooming down the track Gleaming in the sunlight for white and black Not stopping at no stations marked coloured or white Just stopping in the fields in the broad daylight Stopping in the country in the wide open air Where there never was a Jim Crow sign nowhere And no lilly white committees, politicians of note Or poll tax layer through which coloured can't vote And there won't be no kind of colour lines The freedom train will be yours and mine A voice pure - a vision so clear I gotta learn to live like you Learn to sing like you Sing it loud - sing it proud I will be heard I will be found Sing it loud - sing it proud I will be heard I will be found
