The Afghan Whigs

The Afghan Whigs are an American rock band from Cincinnati, Ohio, originally active from 1986 to 2001. They have since reformed. At their peak, the group – with core members Greg Dulli (vocals, rhythm guitar), Rick McCollum (lead guitar), and John Curley (bass), as well as various drummers (including Steve Earle and Michael Horrigan) – evolved into one of the leading groups of 1990s alternative rock, rising up around the grunge movement but ultimately transcending it.

I walk around with this all over me
I cannot wash it clean
You've got the ball
You've got the ball I'm taking it from you
And today

It's in the blood
I left it in, in the blood you see
So put the words together
I'll be with you forever

Get up
We'll rise
They'll pay
Get up
We'll rise
And wait until tomorrow night
I can't recall yet if I'm black
Or if I'm white or wrong
Or if I'm white or wrong

I am your creator
Come with me my congregation
Get up I'll smack you back down
Get up
We'll rise
They'll pay

Get up I'll smack you back down
You will become my diamond
I'm yours and you are mine
Get up
We'll rise
We'll rise
And wait until tomorrow night
I can't recall yet if I'm black
Or if I'm white or wrong
Or if I'm white or wrong

Get up
We'll rise
They'll pay
Get up
We'll rise
They'll pay
Get up
We'll rise
They'll pay
