Celebration Day

Her face is cracked from smiling, all the fears that she's been
Hiding
And it seems pretty soon everybody's gonna know
And her voice is sore from shouting, cheering winners who are
Losing
And she worries if their days are few and soon they'll have to
Go

My, my, my, I'm so happy, I'm gonna join the band
We are gonna dance and sing in celebration, We are in the
Promised land

She hears them talk of new ways to protect the home she lives
In
Then she wonders what it's all about when they break down the
Door

Her name is Brown or White or Black, you know her very well
You hear her cries of mercy as the winners toll the bell

There is a train that leaves the station heading for your
Destination
But the price you pay to nowhere has increased a dollar more
Yes, it has!
And if you walk you're gonna get there though it takes a little
Longer
And when you see it in the distance you will wring your hands
And moan
