You remember her from "Empty Nest," "The Critic," and "Biloxi Blues." These days, Park Overall is an environmental activist in her hometown in Tennessee.

We'll talk to her today as we broadcast from the foothills of the Smokies. We'll also visit the Bulls Gap Railroad Museum and remember the late comedian Archie Campbell.

Bruce Cockburn: If I Had a Rocket Launcher Lyrics


[Verse 1]
Here comes the helicopter
Second time today
Everybody scatters
And hopes it goes away
How many kids they've murdered
Only God can say, hey


[Chorus]If I had a rocket launcher
If I had a rocket launcher
If I had a rocket launcher
I'd make somebody pay
[Verse 2]
I don't believe in guarded borders
And I don't believe in hate
I don't believe in generals
Or their stinking torture states
And when I talk with the survivors
Of things too sickening to relate


[Chorus]If I had a rocket launcher
If I had a rocket launcher
If I had a rocket launcher
I would retaliate

[Verse 3]
On the Rio Lacantún
One hundred thousand wait
To fall down from starvation
Or some less humane fate
Cry for Guatemala
With a corpse in every gate


[Chorus]If I had a rocket launcher
If I had a rocket launcher
If I had a rocket launcher
I would not hesitate
[Verse 4]
I wanna raise every voice
At least I've got to try
Every time I think about it
Water rises to my eyes
Situation desperate
Echoes of the victims cry


[Chorus]If I had a rocket launcher
If I had a rocket launcher
If I had a rocket launcher
Some son of a bitch would die
