Justice for Tulsa

Call came in at three-fifteen Bloodiest mess I ever seen A lone boy there, left for dead No one else around Justice for Tulsa Search this town high and low Must be someone out there who knows I checked to see if he was still alive His body was cold, eyes open wide His face was twisted, almost seemed surprised Lying there on the ground I heard they were from the East Side They wеre prowling around at night Was a nice boy from the Wеst Side And they killed him with a switchblade knife Put out a call to bring Dallas in That Winston boy with the crooked grin If there's anything he knows I'm gonna get it out of him I got no clue where they could be And why the hell you asking me? Even if I knew, wouldn't give 'em up to you If you're turning up the heat, I dealt with hotter shit than you When there's trouble on the right side of town It's me and all my boys you're shakin' down Well I got nothing for you Why don't you just get lost Why don't you ask the Socs why the line got crossed Justice for Tulsa Do what you have to do Could this have gone a different way? Can't believe I'm standing here today But you never did the things you should Even so, I know your heart was good When it was only you and me alone I saw a side of you I wish they'd known Like a secret you could never share The part of you that truly cared This can't be real, he can't be gone And I don't know how we just carry on This could've happened to anyone But here we are, can't be undone What have we done? We were only having fun You were only having fun? We were only having fun Just hanging out, just horsing 'round Doing what we've always done Bob was drinking, you were drinking too And tell me what's so fun about a fight that's five on two What'd you think that boy was gonna do? He lived his life scared to death after what you put him through Bob went crazy when he saw you with that Greaser kid You held his hand at the concession stand I saw it all, you know just what you did You guys were loud that night Out looking for a fight The two of us just stayed behind You couldn't stand to leave those boys alone You and Pony holding hands I don't think you understand Bob was not a jealous man Cherry, what you did that night was wrong You should be as mad as me At the senseless tragedy Bob didn't need to die! The Greasers crossed a line We could sit here asking why Or we could send them back a message Take an eye for an eye Anyone from the East Side, if you're prowling around at night We got a message from the West Side, you better run for your life Next Saturday night, Pershing Park—all-out war is officially declared! Justice for Tulsa Where did those Greasers go?
