Rican Beach |
Man built the railroad, man got a move |
Man put out a record, put a needle to the groove |
Man been up, oh man been down |
Now man don’t want no woman around |
First they stole our language |
Then they stole our names |
Then they stole the things that brought us faith |
And they stole our neighbors |
And they stole our streets |
And they left us to die on Rican Beach |
Well you can take my life |
But don’t take my home |
Baby it’s a solid price |
It comes with my bones |
Now all the politicians |
They just flap their mouths |
They say we’ll build a wall to keep them out |
And all the poets were dying |
Of a silence disease |
So it happened quickly and with much ease |
Well you can take my life |
But don’t take my home |
Baby it’s a solid price |
It comes with my bones |
I may never see you again |
I may never see you again |
I’ll keep fighting til the end |
I’ll keep fighting til the end |
I’ll keep fighting til the end |
I’ll keep fighting til the end |
Til the end |
Til the end |
Til the end |
Til the end |
Til the end |
