Ever since I was very small
they told me I couldn’t sing at all
But a tiny voice inside of me said
I would love to sing
And those who lie just once too often
Will find that they can't know the truth
That lives among the sisters and brothers
Who hand in hand renew the earth
O it get me down sometime
it get me down but only a little look around and I find
I’m not so lonely
We in the same boat brother
We in the same boat sister
And my images come
'siem o siyeya', means all peoples, all cultures and races, all people rich and poor.
Statesmen they gamble
reportes can lie
Mothers will worry
and soldiers can die
Home sings me of sweet things
My life there has its own wings
Fly over the mountains
Though I’m standing still
We're always looking for the cure that never can be found
I take the wood, I shape the wood, I shift the world, I make my life
Until the swords turn into ploughshares
Until the children eat their fill
Until the mansions admit the lonely
We have no cause for standing still
Don't look now, someone's done your starvin’
Don't look now, someone's done your prayin'
By the rivers of Babylon, there we sat down
