Nothing Yet Songtext
von Tracy Chapman

Nothing Yet Songtext

Good times and bad
Seen them both
Hope fly out the window
Fortune walk through the door
Learned not to believe
This is as good as it gets
′Cause we ain't seen nothing yet

Hands untied
But the same shuffle once again
Running all the time
Ain′t going nowhere
It's a new page in the same book
It's a new game with the same rules
The lights go down
Fade to black on the set
We ain′t seen nothing yet

Ooh, hoo, ooh-hoo
Ooh, ooh-hoo-ooh-ooh


Saddled with bonds
Broken and in disrepair (ooh, ooh, ooh-ooh)
Forty acres to a forty-ounce
Don′t seem fair (ooh, hoo)
The sirens rise and wail
Shadowed by Liberty's torch (ooh, hoo, ooh-ooh-hoo)
As the boats that brought us over
Are slowly sinking off the shores (ooh, hoo)
And we ain′t seen nothing yet (ooh-hoo)

This life a crime
A blessing and a curse (ooh, hoo, ooh-hoo)
Chosen and unwanted
Displaced and usurped (ooh, ooh-hoo, ooh-hoo)
I'd run away
But there is nowhere to go (ooh, ooh-hoo, hoo-ooh)
So I′ll stand and fight and hope and pray
That the best is yet to come (ooh, ooh-hoo)
And we ain't seen nothing yet (ooh-ooh)

Mm (ooh, ooh-hoo)
Mm-hm
