I've Been Right - Mick Flannery

A strong and hungry state

Blue-eyed boy was born one day

A proud and loving steel

A mother held and honed his will

Any hope and dream saw him to the sky it seemed

And yet a quiet cold ran under a world unknown

I’ve been right for so damn long

There’s no room for me to be wrong

I’ve been right for so damn long

There’s no room for me to be wrong

A youthful life unfold

A dark tale of history told

Who taught you right from wrong

Who taught you white from not

Any hope and dream not the same for all it seems

And wrongs that ought to change

You are not to fault or blame

I’ve been right for so damn long

There’s no room for me to be wrong

I’ve been right for so damn long

There’s no room for me to be wrong

Pick a spot

Start to scrub

It might help you rise above

Take a walk

To the land

That you swore you understand

Any hope and dream saw into the sky it seem

I’ve been right for so damn long

There’s no room for me to be wrong

I’ve been right for so damn long

There’s no room for me to be wrong

Pick a spot

Start to scrub

It might help you rise above

Take a walk

To the land

That you swore you understand

I’ve been right for so damn long

There’s no room for me to be wrong

I’ve been right for so damn long

There’s no room for me to be wrong

I’ve been right for so damn long
