Det var vl ett stt att f ut sina knslor. Slash har kommenterat det med att han och de andra inte gillade idn d de insg att de skulle f mycket kritik men att Axl valde att nd ha med den.
Jag tror att det r en lt som ventilerar tillflliga knslor. Rasisitisk, absolut men ocks frklarande som i sista versen. Och helt rligt, jag tror inte han ngonsin var speciellt inbiten rasistisk eftersom han spelade i samma band som en snubbe som r halvt svart och dessutom invandrare i USA (frn England). Sedan polade ju Axl med Elton John ocks och han r som vi alla vet homosexuell.

Citat:
Ever been unjustly hassled by someone with a gun and a badge? Maybe you've been conned or had someone attempt to sell you stolen property and they just won't take no for an answer. Been to a gas station or convenience store and treated like you don't belong here by an individual who can barely speak English? Hopefully not, but have you ever been attacked by a homosexual? Had some so-called religionist try to con you out of your hard-earned cash? Have you ever been banned or censored by a relatively small group of people claiming to be a majority with self-righteous and dangerous motives? This song is very simple and extremely generic or generalized, my apologies to those who may take offense.
Guess I needed
Some time to get away
I needed some peace of mind
Some peace of mind that'll stay
So I thumbed it
Down to sixth and L.A.
Maybe your greyhound
Could be my way
Police and niggers
That's right
Get out of my way
Don't need to buy none of your
Goldchains today
I don't need no bracelets
Clamped in front of my back
Just need my ticket till then
Won't you cut me some slack
You're one in a million
Yeah, that's what you are
You're one in a million, babe
You are a shooting star
Maybe someday we'll see you
Before you make us cry
You know we tried to reach you
But you were much to high
Much to high
Much to high
Much to high
Immigrants and faggots
They make no sense to me
They come to our country
And think they'll do as they please
Like start some mini Iran
Or spread some fucking disease
They talk so many goddamn ways
It's all greek to me
Well some say I'm lazy
And others say that's just me
Some say I'm crazy
I guess I'll always be
But it's been such a long time
Since I knew right from wrong
It's all the means to an end, I,
I keep on movin' along
Radicals and racists
Don't point your finger at me
I'm a small town white boy
Just tryin' to make ends meet
Don't need your religion
Don't watch that much TV
Just makin' my livin', baby,
Well that's enough for me
