Battle of the Beanfield lyrics

A song about a real event lasting several hours on 1 June 1985, when Wiltshire Police prevented The Peace Convoy, a convoy of several hundred New Age travellers, from setting up the 1985 Stonehenge Free Festival in Wiltshire, England.

I thought I heard someone calling me
I've seen the pictures on TV
And I made up my mind that I would go and see
With my own eyes
It didn't take too long to hitch a ride
With a guy going south to start a new life
Past the place where my friend died
Two years ago
Down the 303 at the end of the road
Flashing lights - exclusion zones
And it made me think it's not just the stones
That they're guarding
Hey, hey, can't you see
There's nothing here that you can call free
They're getting their kicks
Laughing at you an me
As the sun rose on the Beanfield
They came like wolf on the fold
And they didn't give a warning
They took their bloody toll
I see a pregnant woman
Lying in blood of her own
I see her…
