Shoot them before they Grow |
| Two white men fighting one another |
| They’re fighting for a black man |
| The other one says the black man must be free |
| The other one says the black man must be in handcuffs |
| Who’s gonna win now? |
| ‘Cause they both have power |
| Who’s gonna save the black man? |
| ‘Cause he ain’t got no power |
| 16 year old kids protesting they want freedom |
| Black children crying saying give us better education |
| Good white man say, give them good education |
| The bad white man say, shoot them before they grown |
| Shoot them before they grown |
| Shoot them before they grown |
| Shoot them before they grown |
| Shoot them before they grown |
| Who’s gonna save them? |
| ‘Cause they’ve got no rights |
| Where can they run to? |
| ‘Cause they don’t know who to trust |
| All the boys and the girls are running |
| Running for their lives |
| ‘Cause the man with the gun is coming, coming |
| To shoot them before they grow |
| Two white men fighting one another |
| They’re fighting for a black man |
| The other one says the black man must be free |
| The other one says the black man must be in handcuffs |
| Who’s gonna win now? |
| ‘Cause they both have power |
| Who’s gonna save the black man? |
| ‘Cause he ain’t got no power |
| 16 year old kids protest for freedom |
| Black children crying saying give us better education |
| Good white man say give them good education |
| The bad white man say shoot them before they grow |
| Shoot them before they grown |
| Shoot them before they grown |
| Shoot them before they grown |
| Shoot them before they grown |
| The bad white man said shoot them before they grow |
| TheGood white man said give them freedom |
| Freedom for the black man |
| The boys and the girls are running |
| Running for their lives |
| ‘Cause the man with the gun is coming, coming |
| To shoot them before they grow |
| Shoot them before they grown |
| Shoot them before they grown |
| Shoot them before they grown |
| Shoot them before they grown |
