Tracy Chapman - Talkin' Bout A Revolution Lyrics
Don't you know
They're talkin' 'bout a revolution
It sounds like a whisper
Don't you know
They're talkin' about a revolution
While they're standing in the welfare lines
Crying at the doorsteps of those armies of salvation
Wasting time in the unemployment lines
Sitting around waiting for a promotion
Don't you know
Talkin' 'bout a revolution
It sounds like a whisper
Poor people gonna rise up
Poor people gonna rise up
And take what's theirs
Don't you know
You better run, run, run, run, run, run, run, run, run, run, run, run
Oh I said you better
Run, run, run, run, run, run, run, run, run, run, run, run
'Cause finally the tables are starting to turn
Talkin' bout a revolution
Yes, finally the tables are starting to turn
Talkin' bout a revolution, oh no
Talkin' bout a revolution, oh
While they're standing in the welfare lines
Crying at the doorsteps of those armies of salvation
Wasting time in the unemployment lines
Sitting around waiting for a promotion

Always loved this song and it's message...and man, do we need to stop whispering and start shouting.
2019 has been the year of realisataion. I'm so glad that people are beginning to call politicians, billionaires, their goverments and evil corporations out on their bullshit.

I just introduced my (younger) wife to Tracy Chapman, a voice I enjoyed and admired during my childhood.
She listened a while, then exclaimed "Surely this man is one of the greatest vocalists I've never heard of!"
Heheh. We're both fans now.
Great classic tune.
Love this song. Just too short

When are we gonna start whispering?
My sister and I were at Wembley Stadium in 1988. The concert was for Nelson Mandela's 70th birthday. A quiet black person came onto the side stage, as the crew were setting up the main stage for Whitney to come on. Everyone was chatting and taking a break, getting drinks, toilets and burgers. THEN!!! a peace came over the stadium,.. quiet.... Its was TRACY!! at the end of this song there was a certain strange and comforting union in the arena...we were all making conversations...like...WHO WAS THAT!! Seriously didnt know who she was..let alone if the person that sung was male or female.. I remember all the young black gals from Brixton be like,, wow..what jus happened, beautifall
Those songs are so timeless and beautiful i wish there was still such music made today!
What a great song I have that on cassette
Yes and thank God the black community finally is having their Revolution record low unemployment thanks to not Democratic policies that keep you all on welfare and that the Corner liquor store but real substantial policy change thank you President Donald Trump
Tracey Chapman! Love her! I bought her first vinyl at 32 yes old. Now 61. Still love her!

Don't you know
They're talkin' 'bout a revolution
It sounds like a whisper
Don't you know
They're talkin' about a revolution
It sounds like a whisper
While they're standing in the welfare lines
Crying at the doorsteps of those armies of salvation
Wasting time in the unemployment lines
Sitting around waiting for a promotion
Don't you know
They're talkin' 'bout a revolution
It sounds like a whisper
Poor people gonna rise up
And get their share
Poor people gonna rise up
And take what's theirs
Don't you know
You better run, run, run, run, run, run, run, run, run, run, run, run
Oh I said you better
Run, run, run, run, run, run, run, run, run, run, run, run
'Cause finally the tables are starting to turn
Talkin' bout a revolution
Yes, finally the tables are starting to turn
Talkin' bout a revolution, oh no
Talkin' bout a revolution, oh
While they're standing in the welfare lines
Crying at the doorsteps of those armies of salvation
Wasting time in the unemployment lines
Sitting around waiting for a promotion
Don't you know
They're talkin' 'bout a revolution
It sounds like a whisper
And finally the tables are starting to turn
Talkin' bout a revolution
Yes, finally the tables are starting to turn
Talkin' bout a revolution, oh no
Talkin' bout a revolution, oh no
Talkin' bout a revolution, oh no
I was 6 or 7 when this album came out in the late 80s. I remember my dad had the vinyl album and he played it constantly and became a fan of her music. Amazing artist.
