Where Is It, gone
Sang to where have all the flowers gone
Where is all the money, gone
Such a Long time passing
Where is all the money, gone
So long ago
Where is all the money, gone
Inflation took it everyone
Was it ever real?
Was it ever real?
Where is blind Justice, gone
Such Long time passing
Where is blind Justice, gone
So long ago
Where is blind Justice, gone
Politics killed her everyone
Was it ever real?
Was it ever real?
Where is my Freedom, gone
Such a Long time passing
Where is my Freedom, gone
So long ago
Where is my Freedom, gone
Chipped away until there’s none
Was it ever real?
Was it ever real?
Where are all the children, gone
Such a long time passing
Where are all the children, gone
So long ago
Where are all the children, gone
Abortion took them everyone
Were they ever real
Were they ever real
Where is the dream, gone
Such a Long time passing
Where is the dream, gone
So long ago
Where is the dream, gone?
Vanished with the morning sun
Was it ever real?
Was it ever real?
