The Outsider |
| Times are changing you bet |
| Seems the older I get |
| The less I seem to fit |
| In a young person’s world |
| And the higher I climb |
| The more I see design |
| How they keep us all confined |
| Rubbing oyster of their pearls |
| And I am the outsider |
| A horse with no rider |
| I am the fighter |
| When the darkest day is done |
| And I am the survivor |
| Not lay down and die-er |
| Long distance driver |
| And I will overcome |
| My daddy he picked cotton |
| Not a day was misbegotten |
| But everyone’s forgotten |
| About his climb to the pearly gates |
| And next to him I had an easy road |
| But I have my own heavy load |
| A bitter kiss has been bestowed |
| Upon the son of a rebel saint |
| And I am the outsider |
| A horse with no rider |
| I am a fighter |
| When the darkest day is done |
| And I am the survivor |
| Not laying down and die-er |
| A long distance driver |
| And I will overcome |
| Yes I will |
| Every human has a right |
| To form a union, rise up and fight |
| From six minutes to midnight |
| With an old flowing cup |
| For every child born a bastard |
| For every momma’s life that’s past her |
| For every inside job disaster |
| We ain’t giving up |
| And I am the outsider |
| A horse with no rider |
| Shelter provider |
| When the judgement day has come |
| And I am the survivor |
| Not lay down and die-er |
| Ain’t no sense can fighter |
| And I am only one |
