Though they are the sunrise
Oh would you like ride
Though they've joined the workers
The word took you, can fly

They laid their facts upon the line
To live, money had to shine
Powers to be, ran on the tracks
But nothing could kill the facts
They did spray, wouldn't go away

They laid their facts upon the line
To live, money had to shine
Powers to be, ran on the tracks
But nothing could kill the facts
They did spray, wouldn't go away

Ramblin' ramblin', along the dusty way
They could not see, they could not see
Friends, for days and days
Things of sound, things of sound
With their imagination
No one thought, never thought
They'd get emancipation

From 1890 to 1910
The turmoil of brilliant days
If the fool and the women didn't do it right
But they could drag away the slate
Gradually, gradually, using justice and law
They fought for rights
Runs to heights, that men never saw

In his soul, in his soul
The man is still complaining
When the woman gets, her equal rights
Some fellows hit the ceiling
This isn't new, if things are true
It's been here from day to day
Ramblin' ramblin', along the dusty way
