Folk Lore Lyrics - Hasker Da

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 

It's 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 

It's 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
