Lyrics:

My birthplace would be hard to find It changed so many times I'm not sure where it belongs But they tell me the Baltic coast is full of amber And the land was green Before the tanks came One day I learned just how it used to be The devils' curse brought the whole world to it's knees And it was 'Hey you, keep your head down Don't look around, please don't make a sound If they should find you now The Man will shoot you down' It's a mighty long way out of the darkness To where the sun is free to shine Oh! The truck came by to put us in the back And left us where the railroad tracks cross the line Then the border guide took us by the hand And led us thru the hole into the promise land beyond And I can hear him now Whispering soft and low 'When you get to the other side Just run like hell' I thought I had a quiet place Where I could learn how to catch my childhood dreams But on my left and to my right they keep on shouting While I'm just stuck here in between Lord! I'm tried of running and I don't believe I can I can hear them calling time and time again And it's 'Hey you, keep your head down Don't look around, please, don't make a sound If they should find you now The Man will shoot you down'
