Last one out turn off the lights.

Many of them right here at FDL and the other progressive blogs.

Crazy Horse
We hear what you say
One earth, one mother
One does not sell the earth
The people walk upon
We are the land
How do we sell our mother
How do we sell the stars
How do we sell the air

Crazy Horse
We hear what you say
