| We speak in broken | |
| American From the inlands to the shore | |
| From the high planes to the backends | |
| From the mountains to the valley floor | |
| And the streets were not paved with gold | |
| There were men to find a wage | |
| But now we don't know where to go | |
| To work the livelong day [Chorus:] | |
| And now I got to leave this place, oh, oh | |
| Back to my sweet land, oh oh | |
| Now I've got to leave this place, oh, oh | |
| Back to my sweet land | |
| We speak in broken american | |
| From the inlands to the shore | |
| They tell us how the west was won | |
| And what to fight for | |
| And they said they wouldn't send us far | |
| Yeah that most of us could stay | |
| But we speak in broken american | |
| And we got the news today [Chorus] | |
| Say bye bye, say bye bye [x2] | |
| Say bye bye, say bye bye [x6] | |
| Oh, oh, oh [x7] |
