somebody told me, I know where to go
  somebody showed me, I was last to know
    sell me down the river
  sell me down the river
  sell me down the river
  sell me down the river
    what I wanted, is what I wanted
  what I wanted is what she wanted
    unfriendly feelings, down on wounded knee
  unfriendly reasons, some blind mother's need
    sell me down the river
  sell me down the river
  sell me down the river
  sell me down the river
    what I wanted, is what I wanted
  what I wanted is what she wanted
    you read the words and it sells you life
  they sell their words, but it's all a lie
