Oh Cora, oh Cora
I never knew your head
Cora for that matter
I never shared your bed
Cora, oh Cora
It wasn`t lightly said
But living in two cultures
Our lives were truly led
Seeing folks flag waving was our torture
Pigeon holes and theories hard on our trails
I used mine as a bedspread forever no further
Believe in any more integrity fails
Oh Cora, oh Cora
I never knew your head
Cora for that matter
I never shared your bed
Cora, oh Cora
It wasn`t lightly said
But living in two cultures
Our lives were truly led
The sadness in my hears as I was leaving
Was maybe that I might not understand
Distance playing host to disbelieving
I must have never seen you in my hand
Oh Cora, oh Cora
I never knew your head
Cora for that matter
I never shared your bed
Cora, oh Cora
It wasn`t lightly said
But living in two cultures
Our lives were truly led
