I'm sorry
For something I didn't do
Lynched somebody
But I didn't know whoYou blame me
For slavery
A hundred years before I was born[Repeat: x4]
Guilty of being whiteI'm sorry
For something I didn't do
Lynched somebody
But I didn't know who[Repeat: x4]
Guilty of being whiteI'm convicted
Of a racist crime
I've only served
19 years of my lifeI'm sorry
For something I didn't do
Lynched somebody
But I didn't know who[Repeat: x3]
Guilty of being whiteGuilty of being right
