Happy Birthday to you |
[00:22.48] |
Happy Birthday to you |
[00:27.77] |
Happy Birthday, Happy Birthday |
[00:33.18] |
Happy Birthday to you |
[00:42.50] |
A few years ago on my birthday |
[00:48.12] |
I had just become twenty-one (I remember) |
[00:53.09] |
I had a lot to live, said I had a lot to give |
[00:59.13] |
Til a man comes to give me a gun |
[01:03.71] |
And though that war he sent me to didn't claim me |
[01:08.77] |
If I'm bitter don't blame me |
[01:11.62] |
It's just my Soul responding |
[01:17.58] |
Don't you try to tell me I'm un-patriotic |
[01:22.19] |
I deserve an explanation |
[01:27.65] |
I can't help but wonder |
[01:30.68] |
If you really got it |
[01:33.04] |
It's just my Soul responding, Soul responding, Soul responding... |
[02:10.98] |
This land once belonged to my father |
[02:15.48] |
And to his father before him too |
[02:20.72] |
Let me tell you now, I'm on a reservation |
[02:23.70] |
Living in a state of degradation |
[02:27.05] |
What's a Soul suppose to do |
[02:31.42] |
Cause I want out |
[02:33.01] |
My human rights |
[02:34.14] |
Are now in doubt |
[02:36.74] |
When it's just my Soul responding |
[02:41.99] |
To seeing little hungry children in the Land of Plenty |
[02:47.62] |
Just my Soul responding |
[02:52.84] |
To doing lots of needing |
[02:55.97] |
But never having any |
[02:58.00] |
It's just my Soul responding, Soul responding, Soul responding... |
[03:30.36] |
I was born and raised in the ghetto |
[03:35.52] |
On the run down side of the track |
[03:40.52] |
And there are forces who do everything they can do |
[03:45.84] |
To hold me back because my skin is black |
[03:50.96] |
Oh, but more and more I mind |
[03:53.17] |
Hell, It's about time |
[03:56.51] |
It's just my Soul responding |
[04:01.72] |
To being second-class in a land I helped to form |
[04:07.35] |
Just my Soul responding |
[04:10.98] |
To too many roaches and not enough heat to keep my babies warm |
[04:18.07] |
In this land I helped to form |
[04:20.75] |
I've got too many roaches, and not enough heat to keep my babies warm |
[04:28.75] |
It's just my Soul responding, Soul responding, Soul responding, Soul responding |
[04:44.52] |
It's just my Soul... |
[04:53.19] |
Soul responding... |
