I saw the whiteman coming
he´s getting off his plane
he gets in his land-rover
and heads from the mines

I saw the whiteman coming
he´s coming to steal
and he´s coming to rape
and he calls it business

I saw the black man waiting
he´s ready to rob his brothers
and to give away his sisters
for a couple of US dollars

I saw the black nurses wondering
wondering why
they keep sending all these white nurses
to take away their jobs

I saw Art and Tom coming
they get off the train
They´re all geared up to record
and they´re totaly insane

I saw the white girls coming
they´re coming to get
what they can´t get at home
it´s cheap it´s fun
and it don´t last too long

I saw the businessmen coming
Cheatin´ on their wives
With underage girls
Buzzing around their hives
And I saw you coming back a year ago

Won´t you please tell me more
all about your voyage
all the things that you did
and all the people you met

Now I wanna know
my blue eyed son
all the cars that you drove
and all the girls you´ve been fooling around with

I saw you coming back a year ago
