American Skin (41 Shots) Songtext
41 shots
41 shots
41 shots
41 shots
41 shots
41 shots
41 shots
41 shots
We need some quiet
41 shots
And we′ll take that ride
'Cross this bloody river to the other side
41 shots
Cut through the night
You′re kneeling over his body in the vestibule
Praying for his life
Well, is it a gun?
Is it a knife?
Is it a wallet?
This is your life
It ain't no secret (it ain't no secret)
It ain′t no secret (it ain′t no secret)
No secret, my friend
You can get killed just for livin' in your American skin
41 shots
41 shots
41 shots
41 shots
41 shots
Lena gets her son ready for school
She says, "On these streets, Charles
You got to understand the rules
If an officer stops you
Promise me you′ll always be polite
And that you'll never ever run away
And promise momma you′ll keep your hands in sight"
Well, is it a gun?
Is it a knife?
Is it a wallet?
This is your life
It ain't no secret (it ain′t no secret)
It ain't no secret (it ain't no secret)
No secret, my friend
You get killed just for livin′ in your American skin
41 shots
41 shots
41 shots
41 shots
Is it a gun?
Is it a knife?
Is it your heart?
Is it in your eyes?
It ain′t no secret (it ain't no secret)
It ain′t no secret (it ain't no secret)
It ain′t no secret (it ain't no secret)
41 shots
And we′ll take that ride
'Cross this bloody river to the other side
41 shots
And my boots caked in mud
We're baptized in these waters (baptized in these waters)
And in each other′s blood (in each other′s blood)
Is it a gun?
Is it a knife?
Is it a wallet?
This is your life
It ain't no secret (it ain′t no secret)
It ain't no secret (it ain′t no secret)
It ain't no secret (it ain′t no secret)
No secret, my friend
You can get killed just for livin' in
You can get killed just for livin' in
You can get killed just for livin′ in
You can get killed just for livin′ in
You can get killed just for livin' in your American skin
(41 shots) You get killed just for livin′ in
(41 shots) You can get killed just for livin' in
(41 shots) You can get killed just for livin′ in
(41 shots) You can get killed just for livin' in
(41 shots) Get killed just for livin′ in
(41 shots) Get killed just for livin' in
(41 shots) Get killed just for livin' in
41 shots
41 shots
41 shots
41 shots
41 shots
41 shots
41 shots
We need some quiet
41 shots
And we′ll take that ride
'Cross this bloody river to the other side
41 shots
Cut through the night
You′re kneeling over his body in the vestibule
Praying for his life
Well, is it a gun?
Is it a knife?
Is it a wallet?
This is your life
It ain't no secret (it ain't no secret)
It ain′t no secret (it ain′t no secret)
No secret, my friend
You can get killed just for livin' in your American skin
41 shots
41 shots
41 shots
41 shots
