เนื้อเพลง
0:03Well we pounded the pavement between dotted lines
0:07But we always belonged to the fugitive kind
0:11We were never the best but we were better than this
0:15To be made to bow down among princes
0:18I got thrown around hallways and bedrooms and towns
0:22And you run from that voice and it drags you around
0:26It don't matter the ruse or the weapons we choose
0:30There is only one thing that can free us
0:34Oh so here I am lion and the lamb
0:49I was born to be telling this story
0:53I could only be telling this story
0:56I will always be telling this story
1:05Well our father married our mother too young
1:09And he took on a world like a fortunate son
1:13But in the cellar downstairs waiting for the bomb scare
1:17He would hide from us under the kitchen
1:20Where she simmered so soft with her weapons of tin
1:24And like so many suppers she just gave us to him
1:28And he never did guess in her cast iron dress
1:32She was burning beyond recognition
1:36Oh it's not over yet oh that I can't forget
1:51I am going to be telling this story
1:55I was born to be telling this story
1:58I will always be telling this story
2:21Sometimes I feel so reckless and wild
2:25Sometimes I feel like a motherless child
2:28I gave nobody life I am nobody's wife
2:32And I seem to be nobody's daughter
2:36So red is the color that I like the best
2:40It's your Indian skin and the badge on my chest
2:44The heat of my pride and the lips of a bride
2:47The sad heart of the truth and the flag of youth
2:51And blood that is thicker than water
3:03I was made to be telling this story
3:14I was born to be telling this story
3:18I am going to be telling this story
3:22I could only be telling this story
3:25I will always be telling this story
