Ah, it was nothing, it didn't matter to me
Ah, there were tanks all over my city
There was war outside the windows
And children in the streets throwing rocks at tanks

Em            Am        C                   Em
  Ain't got a passport,   ain't got my real name
  Ain't got a chance, sport, at fortune and fame
  And I walk these endless streets, won't you give me a lift
  A lift, a lift, on your citizen ship

They were rioting in Chicago, movement in LA
Sixty-eight it broke the Yardbirds, we were broke as well
Took it underground, MC borderline, up against the wall
The wall, the wall, show your papers, boy

     D                       Em
     Citizen ship we got memories
     Stateless, they got shame
     Cast adrift from the citizen ship
         Am                            B
     Lifeline denied, exiled this castaway

Blind alley in New York City, in a foreign embrace
If you're hungry you're not too particular about what you'll taste
Men in uniform gave me vinegar, spoon of misery
But what the hell, I fell, I fell, it doesn't matter to me

     Citizen ship we got memories
     Citizen ship, we got pain
     Cast adrift from the citizen ship
     Lifeline denied, exiled this castaway

Guitar solo over chorus chords

I was caught like a moth with its wings out of sync
Cut the chord, overboard, just a refugee
Lady liberty, lend a hand to me, I've been cast adrift
Adrift, adrift, adrift, adrift, adrift, adrift

     On the citizen ship we got memories
     Citizen ship, we got pain
     Lose your grip on the citizen ship
     You're cast, you're cast away

     On the citizen ship you got memories
     Citizen ship you got pain
     Citizen ship you got identity
     A name, a name, a name, a name

What's your name, son?
What's your name?
What's your name?
Nothing, I got nothing
Goodbye New Jersey
Give me your tired, your poor
Give me your huddled masses
Your war-torn on your tender seas
Give me your war-torn on your shores at dawn
Lift up your dawn, your dawn lifts me
It's all mythology!
