But when he tried to throw me out I rubbed my hands and said
You haven't seen a struggle if you haven't fought a red
And you ain't done nothin of you ain't been called a red
If you've marched or agitated then you're bound to hear it said
So you might as well ignore it or love the word instead
Cause you ain't been doin nothin if you ain't been called a red
"I fight for my rights and they call me a commie, but that's what I am because it means I'm not a pushover. So I'll just ignore those comments, or maybe even love them"
