I know that it was the night that the war broke out
Because you and I were driving around
You were doing a story
About if people understood what had happened to their world
Tonight in bed sleeping
Our world in bed tonight asleep

You said that you were in touch with the draft resistors
In case the big boys called you up
You're gonna have to let 'em dick you around
But don't let them make you do what you can't live with

Tonight in bed with me sleeping
You looked like you were just a little kid
"Shane," I said, "you've got to watch your ass."
You've gotta have fear in your heart
You've gotta have fear in your heart
You've gotta have fear in your heart

I came here with a friend, one saying to me,
"You've got a thing about men.
You're gonna like it when they throw you around
But don't let 'em make a fool out of you."

Tonight in bed with you sleeping
The world in bed tonight asleep
"Shane," I said, "you've got to watch your ass."
You've gotta have fear in your heart
You've gotta have fear in your heart
You've gotta have fear in your heart
