What Have You Done?

What Have You Done? I think back to the soldier By Yows/Spirko In tattered clothes and hat Embarrassed that soul expired [VERSE 1] To give us Cap and Tax Well I had to leave my family When the shot heard round the world, [CHORUS] called up those British bastards What have you done that put me to the sword With my country? I died a lowly subject, What have you done with the God of men, Of a king and monarchy I gave my life Yeah I’m the first American, So you could be free Who made this country free And this is how, you repay me?

Now I look down on leaders We’re standing guard on the other side Who look down on the sheep Each and every day Who take the printed money Because we know our brothers and sisters And buy a big TV Won’t let it slip away My blood was spilled for nothing, But those that have tuned your back You people aren’t free On the land in which you live And all the rights I gave my life for When you finally meet your maker Just a memory… What answer will you give

[CHORUS] What have you done What have you done What have you done With my country? What have you done What have you done with the founding truths, I gave my life So you could be free And this is how, you repay me? What have you done?

[VERSE 2] I hit the beach a runnin' With an M1 in my hand Before I knew what hit me I was face-Down in the sand Now I’m proud to die on D-day And I'd do it all again But time has shown me death in war Breeds politics and sin

[CHORUS] What have you done With my country? What have you done With my white picket fence I gave my life So you could be free And this is how, you repay me? What have you done?

[SOLO]

[VERSE 3] Now our heroes are still dying And damn near every day, more liberty and freedoms are slowly stripped away
