Black Man's Strain
Why, why, why, oh yeah now must the black man strain?
Why people, must he sweat and strain?
He toil each day from dawn till dusk
(Yes, how true)
Trying to achieve
(Yes, how true)
The little he can
(We know how true)
But just can't make it
(How really true)
I wonder what's wrong
(We know how true)
What's wrong now?
(How really true)
Tell me what's wrong
Why, why must the black man strain?
I really want to know people now, must he sweat and strain?
Tell me, tell me, must the black man strain?
I really want to know people now, must he sweat and strain?
Why people, must he sweat and strain?
He toil each day from dawn till dusk
(Yes, how true)
Trying to achieve
(Yes, how true)
The little he can
(We know how true)
But just can't make it
(How really true)
I wonder what's wrong
(We know how true)
What's wrong now?
(How really true)
Tell me what's wrong
Why, why must the black man strain?
I really want to know people now, must he sweat and strain?
Tell me, tell me, must the black man strain?
I really want to know people now, must he sweat and strain?
