《Across the Lines》歌词

[00:00:00] Across the Lines - Tracy Chapman

[00:00:01] Written by：Tracy Chapman

[00:00:16] Across the lines

[00:00:21] Who would dare to go

[00:00:24] Under the bridge

[00:00:26] Over the tracks

[00:00:28] That separates whites from blacks

[00:00:32] Choose sides

[00:00:34] Or run for your life

[00:00:40] Tonight the riots begin

[00:00:46] On the back streets of america

[00:00:50] They kill the dream of america

[00:01:02] Little black girl gets assaulted

[00:01:04] Ain't no reason why

[00:01:05] News prints the story

[00:01:07] And racist tempers fly

[00:01:09] Next day it starts a riot

[00:01:11] Knives and guns are drawn

[00:01:13] Two black boys get killed

[00:01:15] One white boy goes blind

[00:01:20] Across the lines

[00:01:24] Who would dare to go

[00:01:27] Under the bridge

[00:01:29] Over the tracks

[00:01:31] That separates whites from blacks

[00:01:35] Choose sides

[00:01:38] Or run for your life

[00:01:43] Tonight the riots begin

[00:01:49] On the back streets of america

[00:01:53] They kill the dream of america

[00:02:04] Little black girl gets assaulted

[00:02:06] Don't no one know her name

[00:02:08] Lot's of people hurt and angry

[00:02:10] She's the one to blame

[00:02:15] Across the lines

[00:02:19] Who would dare to go

[00:02:22] Under the bridge

[00:02:24] Over the tracks

[00:02:26] That separates whites from blacks

[00:02:29] Choose sides

[00:02:32] Or run for your life

[00:02:37] Tonight the riots begin

[00:02:44] On the back streets of america

[00:02:48] They kill the dream of america
