Munjana by Archie Roach Ukulele Chords
Munjana ? Archie Roach
T imes were hard in old Swan Hill
A nd her circums tances got h arder still
T he only thing this woman ever k new was pain
I t seemed she?d never k now sweet happin ess again
K icked around, trea ted bad
I t?s not right for o ne so young to be so sad
A k oori child should not have had this cross to bear
I t makes me wonder if a nybody really ca res
T roubled woman is your name
T hrough no fault of yours it seems you always go t the blame
A nd an old man?s voice calls from afar
W ho will shed a tear for M unjana?
F ond memories of Mo ulamein
Th e only happy t imes her family had seen
W ishing that those happy times would never end
W ith uncle John who at the time was t heir best friend
B ut this young girl just couldn?t win
Sh e got in to tr ouble in Denili quin
H ad a lovely child way down in o ld Fitzroy
T hen the Welfare ca me and took her baby boy
B aby Russell was his name
T hey took him from her arms and made her feel ashamed
T ook him away to America
W ho will shed a tear for M unjana?
They changed his name and changed his home
While he was growing up he always felt alone
And through the years his history remained untold
He questioned why so they kicked him out at 12 years old
He was on the streets for many years
No-one ever knew his pain or saw his tears
He took to using drugs and booze just to escape
Then one night they arrested him for murder and rape
Troubled woman, troubled man
Doesn?t anybody out there give a damn?
And an old man?s voice calls from afar
Who will shed a tear for Munjana?
His one true mother who?d searched in vain
For her son she never thought she?d see again
She received a phone call from Florida
They found her son and more bad news for Munjana
Hello Russell, this is your mother calling
Please forgive me I can?t stop the tears from falling
You come from this land and sun above
And always remember the strength of your mother?s love
They took you there when you were five
Now you?re in some jail trying to survive
And if the truth be told when all have testified
Another crime committed here was genocide
Troubled woman is your name
Through no fault of yours it seemed you always got the blame
And an old man?s voice calls from afar
Who will shed a tear for Munjana?
