Love comes from the heart and not from a piece of paper signed by some so called "authority". Yes it's the 70's again, revisiting the time of love vs use of force, and Neil Young once again is leading the cause for peace. I join him and many others by adding my 2 cents with this simple home made video.
This song is also a protest song against violence on the home front including domestic violence, racial tension, homelessness,fraud, co-ercion, theft and generally the use of force to attain what one individual/ group wants or desires from another individual/ group. The free exchange of ideas and values is what this song is about,is what I hope our world can become. Searching for peace on planet earth.
Ron Paul speaks about the very message that this music video portrays. See his video "Freedom is Popular" and listen to one of the most fantastic short speeches I have ever heard.
"The individual is the smallest minority on Earth, without individual property rights there can be no rights for anyone"
OUGHTA BE A LAW
(Guy)-Chorus
Oughta be a law, to make you love me
Oughta be a law, you can't break
Oughta be a law, to make you need me
Oughta be a law, in the United States
Verse 1- Guy
Gonna take a bill to the Senate
gonna take it up to the House
get them to pass a love me law
So there won't be any doubt.
(Girl)
There is no law, could make me love you
There is no law, that you could make
There is no law, could make me need you
There is no law, in the United States.
Verse 2-Girl
If you were chief of the police
you'd put me under arrest
If you were a judge in a high court
you'd sentence me to love you to death.
(Guy)
Oughta be a law, to make you love me
Oughta be a law, you can't break
Oughta be a law, to make you need me
Oughta be a law, in the United States
Chorus Guitar Ride-
(Girl)-Verse 3
You try to force me to love you
you lie cheat and steal
love like that could ever last
Love like that's not real
Girl Chorus-
There is no law, could make me love you
There is no law, that you could make
There is no law, could make me need you
There is no law, in the United States.
(Guy)(Girl Answer)
Oughta be a law, to make you love me
Oughta be a law, you can't break
Oughta be a law, to make you need me
Oughta be a law, in the United States
