Standing on the shore, the cook man comes
Muthar wants to cross mine, wants to take it from me
Fire in my eyes but we ain’t running
Wonamutta, let’s ride, ayy, ayy
Waiting patiently for someone I’ve never seen before
They say he is a captain of men, but he believes in our law.
From the land of white skin
It’s moralistic, unlicensed murder.
With the spear I am the best
Thinking I could wait until the night comes
So I move in silence (I move in my land)
‘Until the moon is at its highest point (no one can)
And my soul is defiant (defy my land)
He will not be attuned to the desire to kill.
Any white devil wants to test my will.
Then he’ll end up burning from the fire I feel
Look them in the eyes and keep their spirit still
He hopes I don’t catch him but I know I will
Standing on the shore, the cook man comes
Muthar wants to cross mine, wants to take it from me
Fire in my eyes but we ain’t running
Wonamutta, let’s ride, ayy, ayy
Standing on the shore, the cook man comes
Muthar wants to cross mine, wants to take it from me
Fire in my eyes but we ain’t running
Wonamutta, let’s ride, ayy, ayy
Well, they say they came in peace.
But our blood still stains the beach
Roll the dice, let’s play forever.
This holy place is not a place to preach
(No, no, no) There’s no white faith in a black belief
(No, no, no) Better pray that our spears don’t reach
Your heart white and cold, I will make it bleed, I will lead it to the First Fleet
Sicker than the disease he brings from abroad.
No matter where you run, I will always be
In the darkest night, yes the sender will see me
Standing on the shore, the cook man comes
Muthar wants to cross mine, wants to take it from me
Fire in my eyes but we ain’t running
Wonamutta, let’s ride, ayy, ayy
