"My dad was named after a Civil War general, and he voted for Barack Obama twice," wrote Wilco's Jeff Tweedy in a post accompanying a new track released in response to the race driven violence last weekend in Charlottesville, Virginia. "He used to say 'If you know better, you can do better.' America – we know better. We can do better." The song's lyrics include:“All lives, all lives you say,
I can see you are afraid.
Your skin is so thin
your heart has escaped."
The full post:A new Wilco song called "All Lives, You Say?" is available for immediate download with a charitable contribution. Proceeds will go to the Southern Poverty Law Center, in the memory of Jeff Tweedy's father, Robert L. Tweedy (1933-2017). "My dad was named after a Civil War general, and he voted for Barack Obama twice. He used to say 'If you know better, you can do better.' America – we know better. We can do better." – Jeff Tweedy
