Across The Lines by Tracy Chapman


Across the lines

Who would dare to go

Under the bridge

Over the tracks

That separates whites from blacks

 

Choose sides

Run for your lifes

Tonight the riots begin

On the back streets of america

They kill the dream of america

 

Little black girl gets assaulted

Ain’t no reason why

Newspaper prints the story

And racist tempers fly

Next day it starts a riot

Knives and guns are drawn

Two black boys get killed

One white boy goes blind

Across the lines

Who would dare to go

Under the bridge

Over the tracks

That separates whites from blacks

 

Choose sides

Run for your lifes

Tonight the riots begin

On the back streets of america

They kill the dream of america

 

Little black girl gets assaulted

Don’t no one know her name

Lots of people hurt and angry

She’s the one to blame

 

Across the lines

Who would dare to go

Under the bridge

Over the tracks

That separates whites from blacks

 

Choose sides

Run for your lifes

Tonight the riots begin

On the back streets of america

They kill the dream of america
