I Wonder When I'll Get To Be Called a Man |
When I was born into this world, this is what happened to me |
I was never called a man, and now I’m fifty-three |
I wonder when |
I wonder when |
I wonder when will I get to be called a man |
Do I have to wait till I get ninety-three? |
When Uncle Sam called me, I knowed I’d be called a real McCoy |
But I got none of this, they just called me soldier boy |
I wonder when |
I wonder when |
I wonder when will I get to be called a man |
Do I have to wait till I get ninety-three? |
When I got back from overseas, that night we had a ball |
Next day I met the old boss, he said «Boy get you some overalls» |
I wonder when |
I wonder when |
I wonder when will I get to be called a man |
Do I have to wait till I get ninety-three? |
I’ve worked on the levee camps, and axer gangs too |
Black man’s a boy, don’t care what he can do |
I wonder when |
I wonder when |
I wonder when will I get to be called a man |
Do I have to wait till I get ninety-three? |
They aid I was uneducated, my clothes were dirty and torn |
Now I’ve got a little education, but I’m still a boy right on |
I wonder when |
I wonder when |
I wonder when will I get to be called a man |
Do I have to wait till I get ninety-three? |
