My ancestors were kings of old They ruled the world and all of its gold But look at me, oh! look at me Just look at me My ancestors would find the sun Before they bowed down to anyone But you gonna look at me Whoa-o-oh! look at me Just look at me Yeah, whoa-o-oh! look at me I'm a stranger in this land Watch me stand tall Help me, help me be just a man, oh! My ancestors, they were mighty men And my son, he will be one of them And they'll just look at him Yeah, they'll look at him And they'll say, he's a man, he's a man My son's a man, oh!
