October Wind Lyrics & Chords By Roaring Jack

Not since Lenin’s day has such a fever gripped the land
Once more the people feel they have some more power in their hand
Power to ring the changes and lay the tyrants low
The wind that shook the world has once again begun to blow

In Moscow and in Kiev and the streets of Leningrad
The people are demanding what they always should have had
A classless free democracy with neither great or small
For a communist with privilege is no communist at all

And the hunger won’t be satisfied
Till the great October wind has been revived

The revolution from above has lit a fire below
The people not the party are the ones who matter nor
Is that not the vision struggled for so many years ago
When the great October wind that shook the world began to blow

And the peoples’ will won’t be denied
When the great October wind has been revived

The people are now far beyond the point of no return
The fire of hope rekindled, may it forever burn
In the hearts of men and women who’d dare to rise and fight
All who would be masters and deny another’s rights

And the peoples’ will won’t be denied
When the great October wind is blowing
And the peoples’ will won’t be denied
When the great October wind has been revived
