Manny Charlton - Whiteboy lyrics
Send him to the fieldssend him to the wars
Send him on down to slave on the farms
Steal his landrob his soul
Send him on down to dig that hole
Give him no hopegive him no trial
Put him in chainsbreak that smile
Pull that bargetote that bale
Listen to him singin'hear him wail
You wouldn't do that to a whiteboy
You wouldn't do that to a whiteboy
You wouldn't do that to a whiteboy
Give him no peacegive him no rest
Teach him to believe your God is the best
Sail him awayto the promised land
Send him on down into his masters hand
Take his womantake his child
Take him on down to the murder mile
Pull that bargetote that bale
What's that song you hear him wail
Now you wonder why he's an angry man
Why there's fire in your father's land
And wonder now what tomorrow will bring
Will you hear him screamin'will you hear him sing.
(manny charlton)
