The memory edges in the mind kampong buah pala penang
High Chaparral breathes its last
The houses gone the residents cry
Tears flow misery faces
What good does it now?
Complacency staggered strokes
Living on borrowed times
Decades breathing the fresh air
Decades living in total grace
Only in 21st century the rug pulls them away
And they never know
Still believing Bee Anne
The good cowboy guarding their interests
When it is alienated to a Malay cooperative
Overnight they become the squatters
When they start to negotiate
They don't blame Bee Anne
They blame LGE and DAP
Forgetting their plight!
Greed comes to play
Demanding until its final day
When you are at your weakest point
You have lost the ball the time is done
High Chaparral
Memories bury tears by the wind
On the ashes into history
Of complacency and greed
Of decades living good lives
Until they forgot
They didn't have good titles
On the land they thought they had
