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 the of darkness

To 74447,-4)where the sun is free to shine

Oh The truck came by to us put in the back

And left us where the railroad tracks cross the line

Then the border guide took us by 95695,-108)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"

"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"

"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"

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"
