[00:09.84]I'm a simple man with a simple name
[00:17.82]From this soil, my people came
[00:21.57]In this soil remain, oh, yeah, oh, yeah
[00:33.18]🎵
[00:35.49]We made us our shoes
[00:38.40]And we trod soft on the land
[00:42.44]But the immigrant built roads
[00:46.50]On our blood and sand, oh, yeah
[00:53.70]🎵
[01:00.07]White man, white man
[01:01.76]Don't you see the light behind your blackened skies?
[01:05.87]White man, white man
[01:08.47]You took away the sight to blind my simple eyes
[01:13.23]White man, white man
[01:14.81]Where you gonna hide from the Hell you've made?
[01:24.52]🎵
[01:30.73]Oh, the red man knows wars
[01:33.10]With his hands and his knives
[01:36.62]On the Bible, you swore
[01:39.83]Fought your battle with lies, oh, yeah
[01:47.64]Leave my body in shame
[01:51.31]🎵
[01:53.34]Leave my soul in disgrace
[01:57.01]But by ev'ry God's name
[02:00.46]Say a prayer for your race, oh, yeah
[02:07.88]White man, white man
[02:10.46]Our country was green and all our rivers wide
[02:14.39]White man, white man
[02:16.87]You came with a gun and soon our children died
[02:20.95]White man, white man
[02:23.48]Don't you give a light for the blood you've shed?
[02:32.96]🎵
[03:11.44]White man, white man
[03:13.62]White man
[03:17.72]White man, white man
[03:20.08]For you battled with lies
[03:24.37]White man, white man
[03:26.94]Still lies
[03:30.96]White man, white man
[03:33.55]Say you look around every skin and bone again
[03:41.91]🎵
[03:44.34]What is left of your dream?
[03:49.31]🎵
[04:26.81]Just the words on your stone
[04:31.06]A man who learned how to teach
[04:34.81]Then forgot how to learn
[04:39.48]Oh, yeah
[04:42.15]🎵
