How Many Miles Must We March Songtext
von Ben Harper

Exactly how much will have to burn
Before we will look to the past to learn?
We walk along this endless path
Which has led us in circles so here we are right back

We can′t let the future become our past
If we are to change the world
Won't you tell me, tell me please
How many miles must we march?
Oh, how many miles must we march?

When I was a baby I was not prejudiced
Hey, how about you?
This was something that I learned in school
Something they taught us to do


We can′t let our future become our past
If we are to change the world
Won't you tell me, tell me please
How many miles must we march?
Oh, how many miles must we march?

There must come a day
When a box is not somebody's home
The unfinished work of our heroes
Must truly be our own

We can′t let the future become our past
If we are to change the world
Won′t you tell me, tell me please
How many miles must we march?
How many miles must we march?

How many miles must we march?
Woah, how many miles we march?
How many (how many)
Miles must we (miles must we march)
How many miles (how many miles)
Woah, how many miles? (How many miles must we march?)
