Knowledge Of Beauty

I've often thought about
Men where I came from
And times ago
Their sons, these days, are found
U. S. and Britannia care
And as I think about
In her eyes I look and see the story there (What?)

You know

Knowledge of beauty in itself rare

Go west, go west young man
West of hollow words and all that lies there
Go west, I'll sing an air
From the previous wild black curly hair

For what use is anything?
Oh, if I don't have the wisdom and warmth of my past generations
If I need strength to take bad on
I just look back to where I came from

I look back where I came from (Bum-bum-bum, bum-bum-bum, bum-bum-bum)
I look back where I came from (Bum-bum-bum, bum-bum-bum, bum-bum-bum)

I look back where I came from (Bum-bum-bum, bum-bum-bum, bum-bum-bum)
I'm sorry for not being that nice (Bum-bum-bum, bum-bum-bum, bum-bum-bum)
I've had respect, money and love (To-doo-doo)
Denied my beautiful heritage (To-doo-doo)
Gone away from my roots and come back home again (To-to-doo-doo-doo-doo)
I gave away my individuality (To-doo-doo)
And listened to the now generation (To-to-doo)
When really I'm not one of those

To love has brought me closer to the truth
And right now I couldn't be any closer

To love your father is a fulfilling thing

Oh, yes, I just look back where I came from (To-to-doo)
Oh, I gotta, I look back where I came from (To-to-doo)
Yes I do, I just look back where I came from (To-to-doo)
Oh, I just look right back, look right back where I came from (To-to-doo)
Oh, I just look right back, look right back where I came from (To-to-doo)
Oh, my national pride is a personal pride where I came from (To-to-doo)
