Billy Bragg - I Dreamed I Saw Phil Ochs Last Night lyrics
I dreamed I saw phil ochs last night 
Alive as you and me 
Says I to phil "you're ten years dead" 
"i never died" says he 
"i never died" says he 
The music business killed you phil 
They ignored the things you said 
And cast you out when fashions changed 
Says phil "but I ain't dead" 
Says phil "but I ain't dead" 
The fbi harassed you phil 
They smeared you with their lies 
Says he "but they could never kill 
What they could not compromise Billy Bragg - I Dreamed I Saw Phil Ochs Last Night - http://motolyrics.com/billy-bragg/i-dreamed-i-saw-phil-ochs-last-night-lyrics.html
I never compromised" 
"though fashion's changed and critics sneered 
The songs that I have sung 
Are just as true tonight as then 
The struggle carries on 
The struggle carries on" 
With the song of freedom rings out loud 
From valleys and from hills 
Where people stand up for their rights 
Phil ochs is with us still 
Phil ochs inspires us still
