The Stratospheres - Pipeline Shakedown

Snake comes like a pipeline
Greed is on the main line
Water keepers keeping time
Out on the front line
Out on the front line

We need water more than oil
Coming to a hard boil
We are standing on this soil
For all time
For all time

Gotta keep it in the ground
Come on people make a sound
You know what's going down
Out on the front line
Out on the front line

Come on people shake your hips
And give that snake the slip
Keep that pipe off of that line
We are standing here for all time

Bismarck says the danger's real
Don't put that pipeline near
Likewise we say don't put it here
Keep it off line
Keep it off line

They say rail has more danger
Send their guns, send a ranger
Act like water is a stranger
It's a strange time
It's a strange time

They say more pipelines in sight
But two wrongs don't make a right
And we are standing for what's right
Keep it off line
Keep it off line

Come on people shake your hips
And give that snake the slip
Keep that pipe off of that line
We are standing here for all time

Standing mother, standing daughter
We are standing for this water
And we are standing here
For all time
For all time

Standing son and standing father
We are standing for this water
And we are standing here
For all time
For all time

Send your dogs and send your guns
But you're still all mothers' sons
And you're all drinking water
For all time
For all time

Come on people shake your hips
And give that snake the slip
Keep that pipe off of that line
We are standing here for all time

Snake comes like a pipeline
Greed is on the main line
Water keepers keeping time
Out on the front line
Keep it off line
For all time
For all time
