John Wesley Harding – July 13th 1985 lyrics

July 13th 1985 was the day we watched Live Aid
The Global Jukebox came alive
We fed the world that day

July 13th 1985 was the day we watched Live Aid
The Global Jukebox came alive
We fed the world that day
We fed the world that day
Well the powerful voice of pop music, solve the problems, feed the world
So what if there weren't any blacks involved there was Everything but the Girl
Bob Geldof has no ego that man should get the Nobel Prize
