Come hell or high water
our sons and our daughters
are going to have a better life
We'll hide all our money
Won't spend a dime honey
We'll cook meals by candlelight
And we'll dance in the yard
share all our stars
make room for company
Throw some logs on the fire
And as the flames grow higher
We'll drink and dream
Come hell or high water
our sons and our daughters
are going to have a better life
They’re going to know who they are
and who they are not
Who they love and who they just like
We know they’ll have problems
they’re going to solve them
Better days are meant to be
You’ll respect where they’ve been
and start listening
or else you can just leave.
And we will sing songs
and right wrongs
and testify to all we hold dear
we’ve lived and lived through
difficult years
Come hell or high water
our sons and our daughters
are going to have a better life
Through the fog and the mist and the blood on our fists
We'll fight for what's right or die
No we're not insane
It’s the blood in our veins that wants what's right and real
We may die in this war
but we'll never kneel
And we will sing songs
and right wrongs
and recognize all of our fears
we’ve lived and lived through
difficult years
