I was born too damn late! I saw this movie at age 12 in the mid seventies and really identified with it. I feel like a hippie liberal at age 51 because I am all for human rights and no prejudice. ( And I was raised in the rural South so I have really transcended my upbringing).

RIP Tom, you changed my life and made me know that one person can make a difference. I saw Billy Jack when I was only 10-years-old; and will never forget the messages, the power......heroic, epic, God Bless you.

This song ought to be played at every member of the Republican party everytime they try to pass legislation to start a war, give more money to the rich or take away another public benefit.

Had the fortune to meet the author from the group coven; said she created the song - lyrics music and all. Still a favorite

The woman singing this, Jinx Dawson, was a known occultist and a practicing ceremonial magician like Aleister Crowley. The band Coven really was a Coven.

I remember this song... Thinking it applies to 'life' right now, sadly, and that I should teach it to my 3rd grade music students. They are so knowledgeable of all the evils in this world already. It is frightening. We have to get back to neighbors loving and really caring about each other, instead of this 'us and them' mentality. It's stealing my joy, when all most folks really want IS Peace on Earth. Thank you for publishing this anthem. LL [ps: I'm with Michael James' opinion and mentally hugging away Adam Perrine's sadness]
