Artist/Band: Levellers
Lyrics for Song: Battle Of The Beanfield
Lyrics for Album: Best Live: Headlights, White Lines, Black Tar Rivers [1996]



I thought i heard someone calling me

i've seen the pictures on TV

and i made up my mind that i'd go and see

with my own eyes



It didn't take too long to hitch a ride

with a guy going south to start a new life

past the place where my friend died

two years ago



Down the 303 at the end of the road

flashing lights - exclusion zones

and it made me think it's not just the stones

that they're guarding



Hey hey, can't you see

there's nothing here that you could call free

they're getting thier kicks

laughing at you and me



As the sun rose on the beanfield

they came like wolf on the fold

and they didn't give a warning

they took their bloody toll



I see a pregnent woman

lying in blood of her own

i see her children crying

as the police tore apart her home



And no they didn't need a reason

it's what your votes condone

it seems they were committing treason

by trying to live on the road



CHORUS
