What Ive since is
it is a very painful process
But it is not
Its the world

That what really happened in the
Was that country took just the first step
admittin that it had been wrong on race
And burst out in all directions

From the color of the faces in songs
To the hatred they all the youngsters on
Once upon a in this country, long ago
She there was somethin wrong

Because the song said yellow, red, black, and
Everyone precious in the path of
But what about the daughter of the woman cleanin their
Wasnt she a child they were about?

And if Jesus us black and white skin
Why didn't her white mother them in?
When did it become a room for no blacks to in?
How did she already know not to ask the

Left impressions
Adolescences comforts
She thought things would ever change
But she always knew was somethin wrong

She always knew there was wrong
She always there was somethin wrong

Years later she found herself bound
To help stop the legalized of Mr. Willie McGee
But they stop it, so, they thought
theyd talk to the governor about what happened and say
Were tired of bein used as an to kill black men

But the wouldnt let em past
And these women they struck em as
So, they em all off to jail
And they it protective custody

Then from her cell she heard her jailers about outsiders
When she called him out and she was from the South
They shouted, Why is a Southern lady
Makin for the governor?

She said, I guess I'm not your of lady
And I guess I'm not your type of
But before you call me traitor, well, its plainest to say
I was a child in but I'm ashamed of it today

She always knew was somethin wrong
She always knew there was somethin
She always there was somethin wrong
She always there was somethin wrong

And all of a sudden I realized that I was on the side

the world that youre standin within
All of your neighbors and family
How would you cope facin the
The flesh on their hands was with sin?

She this every day
In people she saw on a basis
People she in several cases
she knew were incredibly racist

It was painful but she never lovin them
Never callin their names
And she never stopped bein a Southern
And she never fightin for change

And she saw that her struggle was in the
Of ancestors aware of her
It today, the soul of a Southerner
of the other America

She always knew was somethin wrong
She always knew there was somethin
She always there was somethin wrong
She always there was somethin wrong

you win in the immediate battles is
Is little compared to the you put into it
But if you see that as a
Of total movement to build a new world
You know what cathedral buildin
When you put stone in

You do a choice
You don't have to be a part of the world of the
You can join the America
There is an America
