Bigot's Graveyard
(Chip Taylor)
Back Road Music, B.M.I.
There was none on his side
They was all on my side
So we beat him silly
Who said life was fair
And I watched him fallin'
And I heard him callin'
What the hell are you doin'
Brother don't you care
Hell he was black, we was white
We was young and we was right
And somebody' has got to pay
In this land of plenty
Some ain't got any
But hell we took our share back in the day
I was ridin shotgun
In the land of the Indian
South Dakota
Layin' railroad ties
And we raped their women when they were not willin'
And we pissed on their dreams of paradise
Hell they was red, we was white
We was young and we was right
And somebody has got to pay
In this land of plenty
Some ain't got any
But hell we took our share back in the day
There's a world war coming
We kept on drumming
Dropped that bomb
Hell, we leveled that place
We took no chances
Behind the barbwire fences
We kept 'em prisoner
And we hid their face
Hell they was yellow, we was white
We was young and we was right
And somebody has got to pay
In this land of plenty
Some ain't got any
But hell we took our share back in the day
It's a different day you know
Now the white man goes to Indian casinos
Eating Chinese food
What the hell is he thinkin'
Thinkin' without blinking
Get in business with a black man
Get in bed with a Puerto Rican
Hell they was brown, we was white
We was young and we was right
And somebody has got to pay
In this land of plenty
Some ain't got any
But hell we took our share back in the day
What the hell are you looking at
I'm just USA, free and proud to be
And I take care of me and mine.
