歌詞

[Chorus]
Across the lines
Who would dare to go
Under the bridge
Over the tracks
That separates whites from blacks
[Verse 1]
Choose sides
Run for your lives
Tonight the riots begin
On back streets of America
They kill the dream of America
[Verse 2]
Little black girl gets assaulted
Ain't no reason why
Newspaper prints the story
And racist tempers fly
Next day it starts a riot
Knives and guns are drawn
Two black boys get killed
One white boy goes blind
[Chorus]
Across the lines
Who would dare to go
Under the bridge
Over the tracks
That separates whites from blacks
[Verse 3]
Choose sides
Run for your lives
Tonight the riots begin
On back streets of America
They kill the dream of America
[Verse 4]
Little black girl gets assaulted
Don't no one know her name
Lots of people hurt and angry
She's the one to blame
[Chorus]
Across the lines
Who would dare to go
Under the bridge
Over the tracks
That separates whites from blacks
[Outro]
Choose sides
Run for your lives
Tonight the riots begin
On back streets of America
They kill the dream of America
