If tomorrow is judgement day (sing mommy)
And I'm standin' on the front line
And the Lord ask me what I did with my life
I will say I spent it with you
If I wake up in WW 3
I see destruction and poverty
And I feel like I want to go home
It's okay if your commin' with me
Cause your love is my love
And my love is your love
It would take an eternity to break us
And the chains of Amistad couldn't hold us
If I lose my fame and fortune
And I'm homeless on the street
And I'm sleepin' in Grand Central Station
It's okay if you're sleepin' with me
As the years they pass us by
We stay young through each other's eyes
And no matter how old we get
It's okay as long as I got you babe
[Chorus]
If I should die this very day
Don't cry, cause on earth we wasn't meant to stay
And no matter what people say
I'll be waiting for you after judgement day
And I'm standin' on the front line
And the Lord ask me what I did with my life
I will say I spent it with you
If I wake up in WW 3
I see destruction and poverty
And I feel like I want to go home
It's okay if your commin' with me
Cause your love is my love
And my love is your love
It would take an eternity to break us
And the chains of Amistad couldn't hold us
If I lose my fame and fortune
And I'm homeless on the street
And I'm sleepin' in Grand Central Station
It's okay if you're sleepin' with me
As the years they pass us by
We stay young through each other's eyes
And no matter how old we get
It's okay as long as I got you babe
[Chorus]
If I should die this very day
Don't cry, cause on earth we wasn't meant to stay
And no matter what people say
I'll be waiting for you after judgement day
Chain of amistad:
La Amistad (pronounced: [la a.misˈtað]; Spanish: Friendship) was a 19th-century two-masted schooner built in Spain[citation needed] and owned by a Spaniard living in Cuba. While it was transporting Mende captives originally kidnapped in Sierra Leone from Havana, Cuba,[1] in July 1839, the Africans took control of the ship. La Amistad was captured off the coast of Long Island by the Revenue Cutter USS Washington. The Mende and La Amistad were interned while court proceedings were undertaken for their disposition. The case, United States v. The Amistad (1841) was finally decided by the Supreme Court of the United States in favor of the Mende, restoring their freedom. It became a symbol in the movement to abolish slavery.
