Avalanche Songtext
von Prince & The New Power Generation

Oh yeah!


He was not or never had been in favor
Of setting our people free (no, no)
If it wasn′t for the Thirteenth Amendment (oh yes, oh)
We would have been born in slavery
He was not or never had been in favor (no, no, no)
Letting us vote
So you see
Abraham Lincoln was a racist
He said, "You cannot escape from history"

Like the snow coming down the mountain
That landed on wounded knee
Nobody wants to take the weight
The responsibility

Like the snow coming down the mountain
That landed on wounded knee
No, no, no-no, no-no, nobody wants to take the weight
The responsibility
