Nina Simone - Backlash Blues - Live At Casino Montreux, 3rd July 1976 şarkı sözleri

Sanatçı: Nina Simone

albüm: Nina Simone: The Montreux Years (Live)


Mr. blacklash, Mr backlash
Who'd you think I am?
You raise my taxes
Freeze my wages
Send my son in Vietnam
You gave me second class houses
Second class foods
You think all colored people
Are just second class fools
Mr backlash
I'm gon leave you with the blues, yes I am
When I try to find a job
To earn a little cash
All you got to offer is your middle wife, backlash
The world is big now, big round and round
And it's full of other folks like me who're black, yellow beige and brown
Oh Mr backlash I'm gon leave you with the blues, yes I am
I say when Langston Hughes died
He told me many months before
He said, "Nina keep on working
'Till they open up the door now,
And run on stage when you make it
And them doors are open wide
Make sure youu tell 'em exactly where it's at
So there'll be no other place to hide"
So I'm telling you
Warning you
Telling you now oh oh oh
I'm gonna leave you with the blues
