Lyrics Tom Paxton – Don’t You Let Nobody Turn You ‘Round

Turn you round, turn you ‘round
Don’t you let nobody turn you ‘round
Oh, the weak and timid ones will warn you
Not to walk on unfamiliar ground
But it’s there that you’ve got to go, to find what
you’ve got to know
Don’t you let nobody turn you ‘round
Turn you round, turn you ‘round
Don’t you let nobody turn you ‘round
And the silv’ry words tumble from the leaders
And the loud hosannas may abound
From the dungeons of history, you’ll hear an answer
Don’t you let nobody turn you ‘round
Turn you round, turn you ‘round
Don’t you let nobody turn you ‘round
In the time long ago, there was a man
To the old lies he would not be bound
And they hung him to a tree for telling you and me
Don’t you let nobody turn you ‘round
Turn you round, turn you ‘round
Don’t you let nobody turn you ‘round
It’s a long, long journey to your own home
Where your own truth is waiting to be found
And though others will tie you, and try to buy you
Don’t you let nobody turn you ‘round
Turn you round, turn you ‘round

Don’t you let nobody turn you ‘round
Turn you round, turn you ‘round
Don’t you let nobody turn you ‘roun
