About Cinnamon Girl

"Cinnamon Girl" is a song by Prince, from his 2004 album Musicology. The single has been released in several formats. On September 6, 2004, the European CD single was released with four tracks: "Cinnamon Girl" (Album version), "Dear Mr. Man" (live at Webster Hall) "United States of Division" (which had been available only as a download) and an MPEG video of the "Dear Mr. Man" performance. Two weeks later, a similar single was released, but without the video. In November of the same year, Prince's NPG Music Club online retail store sold an Enhanced CD including the audio track, its music video, the lyrics and a five-minute segment of interviews and behind-the-scenes footage.

As war drums beat in Babylon 
Cinnamon girl starts to pray 
I've never heard a prayer like this 1 
Never before that day 

Tearful words of love for people she had never met before 
Asking God to grant them mercy in this face of a holy war 

Cinnamon Girl 

Cinnamon Girl of mixed heritage 
Never knew the meaning of color lines 
Nine one one turned that all around 
When she got accused of this crime 

So began the mass illusion, war on terror alibi 
What's the use when the god of confusion keeps on telling the same lie? 

Cinnamon Girl 

Don't cry, don't shed no tears 
1 night won't make us feel 
Cause we know how this movie's ending 

Cinnamon Girl 

As war drums beat in Babylon 
And scorch the blood red sky 
Militants bomb the foreign gun 
Both sides truly die 

Cinnamon girl opens the book she knows will settle all the scores 
Then she prays after the war that there will not be anymore
