Bottom Of Priority

Well, the boys came lookin' for their soul
 They wanted all the world to see
 So they took Alcatraz and did a graveyard dance
 All they wanted was some dignity
 But from a rerun story from a late, late show
 Where the Indian gets no amnesty
 And spends the rest of his life in a Kansas cell
 At the bottom of priority
 High and dry, left to take another's blame
 High and dry, first hand knowledge of an innocent man
 You can hear him cryin' down in ol' K City
 Hear him up at Wounded Knee
 For the rest of his life in a Kansas cell
 At the bottom of priority
 Well, locked up, forgotten, tucked outta the way
 And treated like he wasn't a man
 They took their aim and wasn't it a shame
 How we stuck our head into the sand
 Well, it was way too late for the government
 They had to make somebody plea
 And spend the rest of his life in Kansas cell
 At the bottom of priority
 High and dry, left to take another's blame
 High and dry, first hand knowledge of an innocent man
 You can hear him cryin' down in ol' K City
 Hear him up at Wounded Knee
 For the rest of his life in a Kansas cell
 At the bottom of priority
 For the rest of his life in a Kansas cell
 At the bottom of priority
