Lord Tell Me Why - Ry Cooder[00:00:00]
Lord tell me why a white man ain't[00:00:10]
Worth nothing in this world no more[00:00:16]
Lord tell me how you 'spect[00:00:20]
Me to stand up tall and proud[00:00:25]
I did just what you told[00:00:29]
I done everything you said[00:00:32]
But the way I'm doing lately[00:00:34]
I could have stood in bed[00:00:36]
So Lord tell me why a white man[00:00:39]
Ain't worth nothing in this world no more[00:00:44]
Lord tell me when a[00:00:54]
White man's gonna be all right again[00:00:58]
Please fix it Lord they took back[00:01:03]
Everything we been working for[00:01:09]
When the riots tore our city[00:01:12]
I stood watch outside our home[00:01:15]
My kids crying daddy[00:01:17]
Why can't they leave us alone[00:01:19]
Split level in Valencia[00:01:22]
Where the cops reside[00:01:25]
We had to walk away[00:01:26]
And leave old memories inside[00:01:28]
Lord tell me why a[00:01:32]
White man ain't worth nothing[00:01:36]
In this world no more[00:01:38]
You can walk across the silvery moon[00:02:00]
And get back home all right[00:02:03]
But it ain't safe to walk the streets[00:02:05]
Of your home town at night[00:02:07]
I'm a Lord man from the Lord land[00:02:09]
But a Lord man ain't worth[00:02:12]
Nothing in this world no more[00:02:13]
