Man built the railroad, man got a move Man made a record, put a needle to the groove Man been up, old man been down Now man don't want no one around First they stole our language, then they stole our names Then they stole the things that brought us fame Then they stole our neighbors, and they stole our streets And they left us to die on Recon Beach Well you can take my life, but don't take my home Baby it's a solid price, it comes with my bones Now all the politicians, they just squawk their mouths They said we'll build a wall to keep them out Now the poets were dying of a silence disease So it happened quickly and with much ease Well you can take my life, but don't take my home Baby it's a solid price, it comes with my bones I may never see you again I may never see you again I'll keep fighting till the end I'll keep fighting till the end I'll keep fighting till the end I'll keep fighting till the end Till the end, till the end Till the end, till the end Till the end
