Across the Lines lyrics

Across the lines

Who would dare to go

Under the bridge

Over the tracks

That separates whites from blacks

Choose sides

Or run for your life

Tonight the riots begin

On back streets of America

They kill the dream of America

Little black girl gets assaulted

Ain't no reason why

Newspaper prints the story

Racist tempers fly

Next day it starts a riot

Knives and guns are drawn

Two black boys get killed

One white boy goes blind

Little black girl gets assaulted

Don't noone know her name

Lots of people hurt and angry

She's the one to blame
