[Richie Havens cover]
2
You can talk about your neighbor
3
You can grab him by the collar
4
You can hurt him only if he hollers
5
"let me go?-let me go"
6
But we all know that's old-fashioned
7
And it can only lead to pain
8
Where we might end up on the corner
9
Taking handouts in the rain
10
You can bomb your foreign brother
11
You can hurt him until he dies
12
You can kill him until he never asks you why
13
You're on his land?-you're on his land
14
But we all know that's all over
15
And that can only lead to blame
16
Where we might end up for our country
17
Taking handouts in the rain
18
You can trample on your sister
19
You can hurt her only if she cries
20
You can hurt her only if she cares
21
With all her heart?-with all her heart
22
But we all know she'd be a mother
23
And that could only lead to shame
24
Where she might end up for her children
25
Taking handouts in the rain
26
Teach your children stories
27
You can fill them full of lies
28
You can make them all despise
29
One another?-one another
30
But when they all find out later
31
And they call us by our rightful names
32
And send us shamefully to old age
33
Taking handouts in the rain
34
Taking handouts in the rain
35
Taking handouts in the rain
