Badlands Whatever Happened Lyrics

Well, I keep on searching for better days, while I
think of those who paved the way
Long ago out in the past, now these men lay to rest
They stood for pride and dignity in a more decent
society
Tell me why these times are gone - Suddenly it all went
wrong

Chorus:
Whatever happened with the pride of our land
Now I see crime rates are rising, tell me where it's
gonna end
Hidden in their golden castles far away from the
streets
Where your life is a gamble when the gangs of violence meet

... The violence meet

In the past when life was hard, they stood together
from the start
They respected the shades of green, fought the enemy so
mean
What's a life worth nowadays? - So damn easily it's
taken away
Now it seems the devil reigns, in a country full of
shame

Chorus

... The violence meet (2x)

Chorus

... The violence meet (2x)
