rufus mckenzie - slavery time blues كلمات أغنية

well you know, my grandmother and my grandfather
people, they’re dead and in their grave
well you know, my grandmother and my grandfather
people, they’re dead and sleepin’ in their grave
you know my mother often told me
son, your grandparents both was slaves

well you know, they keep telling me that this country is free
there’s gonna be some changes made in the white house
people i don’t see no freedom here for me

yeah you know the world keeps standing, wondering
the world wondering why the black man sings the blues

yeah, you know, there have been so many morning
so many a cold morning people i had to go without no shoes

yeah you know, i walked down to my boss’s house
knocked up on his back door. “what can i do for you?”
i said please, please, boss man give me a bite to eat

yeah you know, my boss man’s wife she would fix my plate
when i began to eat, she began to smile
big dog standing in the corner, people, he began to growl
i said lady, i am sorry, i am sorry i believe your dog see a snake
she said no, no my friend, you are eating from his plate
and you still want to know
you want to know why the black man sings the blues
yeah, you know, there have been so many a cold morning
people i had to go to work without no shoes

- rufus mckenzie
