My Ancestors

My ancestors were kings of old

They ruled the world and all of its gold

But look at me - oh! look at me

Just look at me

My ancestors would find the sun

Before they bowed down to anyone

But you gonna look at me

Whoah-o-oh! look at me

Just look at me

Yeah, whoah-o-oh! look at me

I'm a stranger in this land

Watch me stand tall

Help me, help me be just a man, oh!

My ancestors - they were mighty men

And my son - he will be one of them

And they'll just look at him

Yeah, they'll look at him

And they'll say, he's a man, he's a man

My son's a man, oh!

My ancestors - they passed it on to me

I've got to, got to work

And pass it on to my son

And he will be a man, oh yeah

And pass it on to his son

And he will be a man, oh yes he will
