I see the people standing on the shore. I see the big chief standing on the shore. I ask my mama what they're crying for. I saw a black cloud hanging in the sky. I saw a big black cloud hanging in the sky. I ask my papa when will it roll by. Oh we're standing on the edge of the world. Oh we're standing out here. On the edge of the world. Chorus:. Come on brother we gonna shake this town. Come on sister we gonna shake this town. Come on children we gonna shake this town. Down to the ground. Can't draw no water no more. From the drinking well. Can't grow no corn no more out here on my land. We're at the mercy of the government man. Then I followed you followed you we did pray. How can you promise me promise me. Come what may. Where you gonna turn to on a judgement day. Oh we're standing on the edge of the world. Oh we're standing out here. On the edge of the world. Chorus. That's the story.
