[Verse 1: Steve Earle]
Dark was the night
Cold was the ground
When they shot Srinivas Kuchibhotla down
[Verse 2: Steve Earle]
It was in Austin's Bar and Grill
But it could've been most anyone
A madman pulled the trigger
Donald Trump loaded the gun
My country 'tis of thee
[Verse 3: Steve Earle]
Srinivas was an engineer
[?] was his wife
Like so many here before them
They come here to build the life
They were plannin' their first child
But it was not to be
But a stranger shot Srinivas down
Screamin' "Get out of my country!"
My country 'tis of thee
[Verse 4: Steve Earle]
I was born in America
And it's right here I intend to stay
But my country's hurtin' now
There's a few things I need to say
If you fly a flag of hate
Then you ain't no kin to me
And to Srinivas Kuchibhotla's surviving family
Dark was the night
Cold was the ground
When they shot Srinivas Kuchibhotla down
[Verse 2: Steve Earle]
It was in Austin's Bar and Grill
But it could've been most anyone
A madman pulled the trigger
Donald Trump loaded the gun
My country 'tis of thee
