[Intro]
Ain't it a lonely feeling
Talking 'bout my and me instead of we and free?
Ain't it a lonely feeling
Talking 'bout them and me instead of family?
Ain't it a lonely feeling
Being just me?
[Verse 1]
Don't be frightened, street-walking sisters
You did what you thought you had to do
Now a nation of people has crossed over
And they're looking for you to come too
And don't be frightened, dope-pushing brother
You did what you thought you had to do
But now a nation of people has crossed over
And they're looking for you to come too
[Chorus]
Oh, it's such a lonely feeling
Talking 'bout my and me instead of we and free
Oh, it's such a lonely feeling
Being just my and me instead of family
It's such a lonely feeling
Being just me
[Verse 2]
Don't be frightened, pacifying preacher
Everybody knows you did what you thought you had to do
But now a nation of people has crossed over
And they're looking for you to come on too
And don't be frightened, Mr. Puppet Politician
Everybody knows you did what you thought you had to do
But now a whole nation of people has crossed over
And they're looking for you to come too
[Outro]
Mm, it's such a lovely feeling
Being just family instead of them and me
Oh, it's such a lovely feeling
Being just family instead of I and me
Ain't it a lovely feeling
Being just we?
