Guilty of Being White lyrics
by Wire
[Verse]
I'm sorry for something that I didn't do
Lynched somebody, but I don't know who
You blame me for slavery
A hundred years before I was born
[Chorus]
Guilty of being white
Guilty of being white
Guilty of being white
Guilty of being white
[Verse]
Oh, I'm sorry for something that I didn't do
Lynched somebody, but I don't know who
You blame me for slavery
A hundred years before I was born
[Chorus]
Guilty of being white
Guilty of being white
Guilty of being white
Guilty of being white
[Bridge]
I'm a convict (Guilty)
Of a racist crime (Guilty)
I've only served (Guilty)
Nineteen years of my time
[Verse]
I'm sorry for something that I didn't do
Lynched somebody, but I don't know who
You blame me for slavery
A hundred years before I was born
[Chorus]
Guilty of being white
Guilty of being white
Guilty of being white
Guilty of being white
