lyrics

"It's the same old story once again
And this story i'm about to tell
The story it is myself
Every chapter another place to dwell
Policeman don't know my name
But they always know my face
When the caravan rolls into town
You'll see them lock up their gates

And me, oh what a fool!
I believed what my mama taught me
That no human being is illegal
No human being is illegal

Step onto the line to your factory floor
Another day, another dollar
No second thought will ever arise
To embarrass my need for food and shelter
So just grin and bear it now and wait for the day
When it comes, to pass it all on
From the safe corners of our suburban homes
Maybe we're not so different after all

But me, oh what a fool!
I believed what my mama taught me
That no human being is illegal
No human being is illegal

Oh mister, i'm afraid I don't understand
What you are saying
Who are those us and them?
Who is that enemy within?
And though our tongues might not spell the same
It's the same old story once again
And though our own ways can not be tamed
Same red blood runs down our veins

So now call me a fool
For I still believe what my mama taught me
That no human being is illegal
No human being is illegal

And me, oh what a fool!
Now I get what my old man told me
that it's the same
Wherever you go..."
