Over The Rhine – Don't Let The Bastards Get You Down lyrics
Feel the ache of Ohio
Through the veins of Illinois
Mine the seams of West Virginia
Land of buried joy

Lean into the half-light
Fade into the night
Moonrise hovers on the highway shoulder
Scatters into the light

Don’t let the bastards get you down
Don’t let the bastards get you down

Backroads shining in the moonrise
She’s a dragon with a lazy eye
Canary in the coal, a fallen soldier
Drunk on the song of a little white lie

Don’t let the bastards get you down
Don’t let the bastards get you down

Are they gonna steal my love?
Are they gonna steal my love?
Are you gonna free my love?
Are you gonna free my love?

Three birds sittin' on a chainlink fence
Got no cares in this world

Don’t let the bastards get you down
Don’t let the bastards get you down
Don’t let the bastards get you down
Don’t let the bastards get you down

Are they gonna steal my love? Are you gonna free my love? Are you gonna free my love?
