Raise Your Flag

Words & music by Atkins/Hammer He's an outlaw On a dead end street Has no choice no road to follow Between the devil and the deep blue sea Today's like tomorrow Oh he's building up inside Danger in the air One fatal shot in the street fight [Chorus] Raise your flag Show your colour All you've got is yourself Don't turn your back On your brother Put your trust in nobody else Under surveillance Put in the frame Doing time in a crossbar hotel Took his freedom Took his name Took his ambitions away No one could hold him down He couldn't take it any longer Raised in a criminal play-ground [Chorus] Walking the street as soldier Day in day out No one to lend a shoulder Inside outside all the same [Chorus]
