words and music by Darryl Cherney
(Gm) Now when I was born
it was such a fright
I looked in the mirror
I saw I was white
(Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!)
My skin it was pink, my
eyes there were blue
My hair it was blond,
damn, what could I do
White tribal music
So I put on a robe, I put
on a turban
But they said man,
you're just white and suburban
So I got me a book to learn
how to dance
It said if you're
white you ain't got a chance
White tribal music Uh...Uh....Uh, Uh, Uh (Cm)
White tribal, white tribal,
white tribal music (Gm)
(Cm) White tribal,
white tribal, white tribal music (Dm)(D#)(D) (Gm)
(Gm) So I went and talked
to an Indian shaman
He told me my problem
was not uncommon
I talked to a Hindu, I talked
to a Buddhist
I talked to a Sufi,
I talked to a nudist
White tribal music
Then up jumped an African
witchdoc
He said what you
need is to turn back the clock
You'd never know
by lookin' a Ronald Reagan
That a long time
ago y'all used to be pagan
White tribal music
Uh...Uh...Uh, Uh, Uh
White tribal, white tribal,
white tribal music
White tribal, white
tribal, white tribal music
So come on you Visogoths,
come on you Vandals
Boogie on down and
take off your sandals
White tribal music
Come on you Barbarian, come
on you Huns
You knew how to shake
your buns
White tribal music
Come on you Druids, come
on you Celts
You could be tribal
like nobody else
White tribal music
Come on you Laps, come
on you Norse
Sail back on that
tribal course
White tribal music
So pick up your pentacle,
put down your bible
Come on everybody,
let's get tribal
White tribal music Uh..Uh...Uh, Uh, Uh
White tribal, white tribal,
white tribal music
White tribal, white tribal,
white tribal music
Uh..Uh...Uh, Uh, Uh Uh..Uh...Uh, Uh, Uh Uh..Uh...Uh, Uh, Uhhhhhhhhhhhh (sob)
