The people before us
Who gave there souls
Just wanted a simple life
Did not own gold
They fled like animals
Under the smoke filed sky
Women and children
Packed the cabins high
(chorus)
They didn't know no no
The distance that would come between them
They were sure were sure
Seperated by the hands of time
Some stayed in spite of all
To start a new
Without there loved ones
Who never bid them adieu
Why are we on rented grounds
Was sometimes asked
Can't go on with your life
If you live in the past
(chorus)
The people before us
Who gave there souls......
(chorus)
