Tracy Chapman - Across the Lines

[Hook]
Across the lines
Who would dare to go
Under the bridge
Over the tracks
That separates whites from blacks

[Post-Hook]
Choose sides
Run for your lives
Tonight the riots begin
On the back streets of America
They kill the dream of America

[Verse 1]
Little black girl gets assaulted
Ain't no reason why
Newspaper prints the story
And racist tempers fly

[Verse 2]
Next day it starts a riot
Knives and guns are drawn
Two black boys get killed
One white boy goes blind
[Hook]
Across the lines
Who would dare to go
Under the bridge
Over the tracks
That separates whites from blacks

[Post-Hook]
Choose sides
Run for your lives
Tonight the riots begin
On the back streets of America
They kill the dream of America

[Verse 3]
Little black girl gets assaulted
Don't no one know her name
Lots of people hurt and angry
She's the one to blame

[Hook]
Across the lines
Who would dare to go
Under the bridge
Over the tracks
That separates whites from blacks
[Post-Hook]
Choose sides
Run for your lives
Tonight the riots begin
On the back streets of America
They kill the dream of America

[Outro]
Mmhmm, mmhmm-hmmhmm
Mmhmm, mmhmm-hmmhmm
Mmhmm, mmhmm-hmmhmm
Mmhmm, mmhmm-hmmhmm
