The Dead Heart Songtext
(Do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do)
(Do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do)
(Do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do)
(Do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do)
We don′t serve your country
Don't serve your king
Know your custom don′t speak your tongue
White man came took everyone
(Do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do)
(Do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do)
We don't serve your country
Don't serve your king
White man listen to the songs we sing
White man came took everything
(Do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do)
(Do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do)
We carry in our hearts the true country
And that cannot be stolen
We follow in the steps of our ancestry
And that cannot be broken
(Do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do)
(Do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do)
We don′t serve your country
Don′t serve your king
Know your custom don't speak your tongue
White man came took everyone
(Do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do)
(Do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do)
We don′t need protection
Don't need your hand
Keep your promise on where we stand
We will listen we′ll understand
(Do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do) Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah! (Do-do-do-do-do-do-do-do)
We carry in our hearts the true country
And that cannot be stolen
We follow in the steps of our ancestry
And that cannot be broken
We carry in our hearts the true country
And that cannot be stolen
We follow in the steps of our ancestry
And that cannot be broken... broken!
