Tom Paxton
You’d Better Believe It
Oh, I read it in the paper
And I heard it on the news
They were talking on the corners
It was up and down the queues
They were talking revolution
And they cheered the new regime
They were winking at the new lords
Who were skimming off the cream
[Chorus]
And you'd better believe it
You'd better believе it
You'd better beliеve it for it's gonna happen
In the end today
You'd better believe it
You'd better believe it
You'd better believe it for it's gonna happen
In the end today
Like a drunk upon his bar stool
With an endless sling of jokes
They are churning out their theories
Like a trail of stale smoke
And they dress it up and dust it
Tie it up with golden rope
Then they leap onto the telly
And they sell it just like soap
[Chorus]
And you'd better believe it
You'd better believe it
You'd better believe it for it's gonna happen
In the end today
You'd better believe it
You'd better believe it
You'd better believe it for it's gonna happen
In the end today
And you'd better believe it
Oh, you'd better believe it
You'd better believe it for it's gonna happen
In the end today
You'd better believe it
Oh, you'd better believe it
You'd better believe it for it's gonna happen
In the end today
