ghost mice – troubled times lyrics
maybe johnny eagle stole some cowboy boots
then raced back to pine ridge with the car in hot pursuit
with no sirens, with no lights
with dark sunglasses hiding their eyes
they were kicking up some dust in these troubled times
kicking up some dust in these troubled times
the people tried to rise up but their leaders were corrupt
they hired goons to shoot them down
and the fbi supplied them with armor piercing rounds
at least 60 bodies got laid to the ground
they were spilling lots of blood in these trying times
spilling lots of blood in these trying times
but what would you do to protect your family
when you see some car chasing your friends
then they get out and start shooting
you would assume that this was just another attack
more death squad goons
you’d get your guns and you’d shoot back
yeah you’d shoot back
when the smoke cleared, there were two bodies on the ground
someone came and fired one more round
and when they searched that car
their fbi badges were found
things keep getting worse in these troubled times
things keep getting worse in these troubled times
when the helicopters came
everybody dropped their guns
and only three were taken in
and two of them had their charges dropped
the judge said it was clearly self defense
but this wasn’t enough for these troubled times
this wasn’t enough for these troubled times
they decided to use this as an excuse
to strike a deadly blow
they knew that all they needed to do
was to take the leaders out
to demonstrate how far they’d go
and the power that they hold
they let the resistance know
that there was no hope
that there was no hope
leonard peltier was never there
but they found a bunch of kids that said he was
they tricked myrtle poor bear
to swear that she saw him shoot the gun
johnny eagle’s pick up truck turned into leonard’s van
lie after lie after lie after lie
anything to get their man
anything to get their man
and today the teenagers say that they were forced to lie
and myrtle admits that they were never lovers and she never met the guy
but they told her they would take her children away if she didn’t say what they told her to say
and leonard has been in prison from 1976 until today
we’re still living in some troubled times (we’re still living in some troubled times)
we’re still living in some troubled times (we’re still living in some troubled times)
we’re still living in some troubled times (we’re still living in some troubled times)
we’re still living in troubled times
