Lyrics

and never know the reason why
Will we ever see the light, will we ever see the light, ain t nothing changed
and all along the border lines
They took their heavy load, with everything they own in a grocery cart

ain t nothing changed
they shook the redman s hand
Singing we shall overcome, will we ever see the light, with everything they own in a grocery cart
marching down the dusty roads

And forever changed his destiny, bad news across the land, bad news across the land
They took their heavy load, with everything they own in a grocery cart
They knew that god was on their side, bad news across the land, and loking back through the years
with everything they own in a grocery cart

And loking back through the years, homeless people shuffle alone in the dark, and took away his dignity
with everything they own in a grocery cart
there was revolution in the air
sinking in the stream of wasted lives

Standing up for all they believe was right, they say these are dangerous times Side, singing we shall overcome
with discrimination on the run
they say these are dangerous times
They took their heavy load, there was revolution in the air Other, put him on some godforsaken land

Now he floats in dreams where eagles fly, and forever changed his destiny
Young people gather on the square, trying to set their spirits free
singing songs of freedom through the night
And never know the reason why, and loking back through the years

before we reach the other side
before we reach the other side
young people gather on the square
Just a broken wing that never mends, far across the sea
