~~~~~~~~~~Lyrics:

They’re trying to put a pipeline where it shouldn’t be, 100 tribes are standing tall Chippewa to Cherokee
It’s hard to see the progress when the president invested, he’s Puttin all that money in you know he ought to be arrested

They were fighting for their lives clean water is a human right
They were running all night trying to make it to that morning light

There's a Fire hose in the cold what gives you the right, aquatic ammunition at an otherwise peaceful fight
It’s hard to see the progress when the presidents invested, he’s Puttin all that money in you know he ought to be arrested

They were fighting for their lives, clean water is a human right
They were running all night, trying to make it to that morning light

The door creeks a little when they walked into the room, ordered up democracy and it couldn’t come too soon
The dealer calls aces wild, she lays down a bet, there ain’t a face card in her hand but you’re never going to see her sweat

They were fighting for their lives clean water is a human right
They were running all night trying to make it to that morning light, yeah that morning light, on the pipeline
