Paragraph Lyric
My mother was a black woman
and my father was a white man
And in the middle of a midwestern winter
they took cover in the night...
And they talked about injustice
And they talked about freedom
And they talked about Hitler
And made love to piss him off
And they talked about forgiveness
And they cried for their loneliness
And they talked about belonging--immigrant lives

And the snow raged past the window
And they held on to each other
And they stared out at Minnesota
And everything looked the same
My mother was a black woman    and my father was a white man    And in the middle of a midwestern winter    they took cover in the night...    And they talked about injustice    And they talked about freedom    And they talked about Hitler    And made love to piss him off    And they talked about forgiveness    And they cried for their loneliness    And they talked about belonging--immigrant lives       And the snow raged past the window    And they held on to each other    And they stared out at Minnesota    And everything looked the same
