Blind Melon — John Sinclair lyrics

Lyrics

It ain’t fair, John Sinclair
In the stir for breathing air
Won’t you care for John Sinclair
In the stir for breathing air
Let him be, set him free
Let him be like you and me They give him number two
What else can the judges do Gotta set him free
If he’d been a soldier man
Shooting gooks in Vietnam
If he was the CIA
Selling dope and making hay
He’d be free, they’d let him be Breathing air, like you and me They gave him ten for two
They got Ali Otis too
Gotta set him free
Was he jailed for what he done
Or representing everyone
Free John now, if we can
From the clutchs of the man
Let him be, lift the lid
Bring him to his wife and kids
They gave him ten for two
What else can the bastards do Gotta set him free
