CITIZEN COPE
"Left For Dead"
(Clarence Greenwood)

Been left for dead
I know it's in the back of your head
Been left for dead
Sister you're better than that

Been sold downstream
Sold down river to the cousin of the king
Been left for dead
Sister you're better than that

[Chorus:]
A e I o u
A e I o u
A e I o u

Gonna beat him instead
Beat all the odds that you got up ahead
You gonna beat him instead
'Cause sister you better than that

[Chorus]
