Right The Wrong

[Verse 1]

An Indian woman buried her grandpa in the Black Hills

When she was young he used to tell her

That these hills belonged to her still

And even though injustice took them hills away

"One day we'll get 'em back," he said

"And the sun's gonna shine that day

"When we say, right the wrong

Before she laid him down to rest

She heard his voice in the wilderness

Saying "I got six feet of it back

"And now we can right the wrong

[Chorus]

Right the wrong

Hear the song

Before long you won't hear nothing but the crackle of flames

Right the wrong

Hear the song

Would you rather die knowing that you did or keep living in shame

[Verse 2]

Did you hear the one about the boy just 17

Three years hard time for stealing ice cream

First offense and all his dreams are gone

How long before they right the wrong?

[Chorus]

Right the wrong

Hear the song

Before long you won't hear nothing but the crackle of flames

Right the wrong

Hear the song

Would you rather die knowing that you did or keep living in shame

[Verse 3]

Two, three, uh

One, two, one-two, come on

Right the wrong baby

Far be it from me to say

It seem like we could stop the flow of snow in the sky today

But I guess the weather man he likes the rain

Ain't that insane

Now sing

[Chorus]

Right the wrong

Hear the song

Before long you won't hear nothing but the crackle of flames

Right the wrong

Hear the song

Would you rather die knowing that you did or keep living in shame

[Verse 4]

Come on, come on, come on

Did you hear me baby?

Right the wrong

I'm six feet in the grave

I'm six feet in the grave

[Chorus]

Right the wrong

Hear the song

Before long you won't hear nothing but the crackle of flames

Right the wrong

Hear the song

Would you rather die knowing that you did or keep living in shame

[Outro]

Ashes to ashes, dust to dust

(Right the wrong, right the wrong)

This young man with a talented soul

(Right the wrong, right the wrong)

Died when he wanted to

(Right the wrong, right the wrong)

The [life/light]that lives

(Right the wrong, right the wrong)

So he shall not be pitied

Nor shall the guilty be forgiven

Until they find it in their hearts to

Right the wrong
