about

Shine - For 14 years (1776-1790) Vermont was an independent republic. During those formative years Vermonters developed an attitude of, “we can take care of ourselves” which continues to this day. This trait serves Vermonters well in times of crisis (both economic and existential) whereby people tend to come together, help each other out, and exhibit a deep community spirit.

lyrics

Shine

I say Hey Now what’s going on
Listen up to this here song
I’ll tell you 'bout people in this old town
Trying to find a way to turn things around

And make it shine, shine, shine, shine
Make it shine, shine, shine, shine

Won’t you tell me all about that promised land
That we can taste and touch and understand
Tell me 'bout a country that don’t tear us apart
Some place near and close to our hearts

Where we can shine, shine, shine, shine
We can shine, shine, shine, shine

I’ve had enough of the likes of you
With your golden crown and your emperor's shoes
They say the harder they come the harder they fall
We won’t build your border wall

We’re gonna shine, shine, shine, shine
We’re gonna shine, shine, shine, shine

So listen up people and hear my song
We’re gonna find a way to carry on
It’s not about me and it’s not about you
It’s about all of us getting the message through

About how to shine, shine, shine, shine
Yea we got to shine, shine, shine, shine

When I finally leave this world
I’ll come back as something beautiful
Song of a bird or strong like a stone
Or something never ever shown

I’m gonna shine, shine, shine, shine
We’re gonna shine, shine, shine, shine
