From the recording Count. Me. In.
This song comes from the Emma Goldman quotation: If I can't dance, I don't want to be part of your revolution. We forget sometimes that asking people to make a difference in the world is often a big ask.
Lyrics
Count Me In
G -C2 (rocking)
You say if I’m not angry, I’m not paying attention.
D C G-C2
But I say that’s just a waste of time.
You say if I’m not scared, I’ve got my head in the sand.
Well I know it looks bad, but I’m feeling fine.
Chorus
C D G -C2 (rocking)
I’m OK with joining your revolution.
There’s only one thing I need for that decision.
Am
You got to promise me good music,
C
And as long as I can dance
Dsus4 D
You can count me in.
G -C2 (rocking) - D-C
Count me in.
Count me in.
You want me to hold that sign, right out on the street.
Write my congresswoman and chant that slogan.
I’ll march if you don’t mind me singing “We shall overcome”
And don’t mind me doing a little tokin’.
Chorus
