mission girl - lamonay lyrics
[verse 1]
i miss your warm embrace, and your diamond field streaks
down by the river, we’d walk and you’d tell me the stories
of long ago
you were born in dry country, of kings and queens
we’d sit in the shade, you’d tell me the stories
of long ago
[pre*chorus]
your beautiful black skin told a tale of pain and sorrow
our history of our people, of refusal and defiance
[chorus]
mission girl, koori rose
mission girl, koori rose
mission girl, koori rose
mission girl, koori rose
[verse 2]
behind the mission fence is where you grew
the sisters all dressed in whitе, told you their stories
of lands far away
[instrumental break]
[pre*chorus]
your beautiful, black skin told a talе of pain and sorrow
our history of our people, of refusal and defiance
[chorus]
mission girl, koori rose
mission girl, koori rose
mission girl, koori rose
mission girl, koori rose
