Hasker Da - Folk Lore Lyrics

Women sewed the stars and stripes

And the men, they fought the wars

The children learned arithmetic

And everyone was poor



Young man was the hero of the day

Long long hours, short short pay



Lesson I learned in history book, now

Its not what they told me

Folk lore, folk lore, folk lore

Your momma never told you



Now the women scream for equal rights

Their man wants to have an affair

Children learn to hate the world

And no one seems to care



Now the kids play vids instead

Their heroes are living on wonder bread



Lesson I learned in history book, now

Its not what they told me

Folk lore, folk lore, folk lore

Your momma never told you that



Some things never change

Some things stay the same

Some things rearranged

One thing I know for sure, your heroes always die
