Great song but it’s important to remember these people helped us win WW2. There is good and bad in everything. Bob was talking about Vietnam I think.
From the song “ With God On Our Side “ .
“The Second World War
Came to an end
We forgave the Germans
And then we were friends
Though they murdered six million
In the ovens they fried
The Germans now, too
Have God on their side
I’ve learned to hate the Russians
All through my whole life
If another war comes
It’s them we must fight
To hate them and fear them
To run and to hide
And accept it all bravely
With God on my side . “
i”Bob was talking about Vietnam I think.”
Bob was using the commie cultist folkies so to kick start his career.
He knew his audience.
When your death takes its toll
All the money you made
Will never buy back your soul
