Tony Joe White - The Other Side lyrics
They say these are dangerous times Got to be on guard Bad news across the land Rumors of war And all along the border lines You can feel the strain And loking back through the years Ain't nothing changed They shook the redman's hand And forever changed his destiny Put him on some Godforsaken land And took away his dignity Now he floats in dreams where eagles fly Sinking in the stream of wasted lives They're just standing by Until they reach the other side Homeless people shuffle alone in the dark With everything they own in a grocery cart And still the lines are drawn between colours of skin Just a broken wing that never mends They took their heavy load With discrimination on the run Marching down the dusty roads Singing we shall overcome Standing up for all they believe was right They knew that God was on their side Will we ever see the light Before we reach the other side Far across the sea Young people gather on the square Trying to set their spirits free There was revolution in the air Singing songs of freedom through the night Who could know they would have to lay down their lives And never know the reason why Until they reach the other side |
