These Are Not My People

These are not my people
These are not my people
Looks like the end my friend
Guess I’ll get in the wind my friend
Cause your momma and your papa sent you to the finest school
Never let it be said their little darling is a fool
So with your credit card and your good name
You were drawn like a moth to a flame
To the people of the night where you more or less lost your cool
You’ve had twenty-twenty vision
I knew your wrong last night
Honey whether right or wrong I still passed along behind
But the plan you have for me
If this is how it’s got to be
It’s time we said you go your way and I’ll go mine
It’s been a gas but I’m gonna have to pass
(These are not my people)
(These are not my people)
Looks like the end my friend
Guess I’ll get in the wind
You found your self naked in the world and no place to hide
And when you felt the force of your god
Guess you learned to die
Now all your rebels that have got no cause
All your tigers that have got no claws
Honey they lied
Kept you dangling on a string
You said you’d be back in a black cadillac limousine
Honey I’m inclined to think that just a kind of mean
Cause when you fall down from off your cloud
And you’re just another face in the crowd
They’re going throw you away like last week’s magazine
It’s been a gas but I’m gonna have to pass
(These are not my people)
(These are not my people)
Looks like the end my friend
Guess I’ll get in the wind my friend
Looks like the end my friend
(These are not my people)
Guess I’ll get in the wind my friend
(These are not my people)
Honey they lied
They just kept you dangling on a string
(These are not my people)
They lied
(These are not my people)
They lied
(These are not my people)
Honey they lied
(These are not my people)
You know they lied
They lied
(These are not my people)
