My father screwed a white island flea
My mother's people were ashamed of me
The muslims said I was their's by law
The white man always called me "Muslim Paul"
Chorus
Half-breed, that's all I ever heard
Half-breed, how I learned to hate the word
Half-breed, he's no good they warned
Both sides were against me since the day I was born
We never settled, went from town to town
When you're not welcome you don't hang around
The other children always laughed at me
"Give him a koran, he's a muslim bee"
Chorus
We weren't accepted and I felt ashamed
Nineteen I left them, tell me who's to blame
My life since then has been from man to man (Larry Sinclair, etc.)
But I can't run away from what I am
Chorus
