White Boy |
| Send him to the fields, send him to the wars |
| Send him on down to slave on the farms |
| Steal his land, rob his soul |
| Send him on down to dig that hole |
| Give him no hope, give him no trial |
| Put him in chains, break that smile |
| Pull that barge, tote that bale |
| Listen to him singin', hear him wail |
| You wouldn’t do that to a whiteboy |
| You wouldn’t do that to a whiteboy |
| You wouldn’t do that to a whiteboy |
| Give him no peace, give him no rest |
| Teach him to believe your god is the best |
| Sail him away, to the promised land |
| Send him on down into his masters hand |
| Take his woman, take his child |
| Take him on down to the murder mile |
| Pull that barge, tote that bale |
| What’s that song you hear him wail |
| Now you wonder why he’s an angry man |
| Why there’s fire in your father’s land |
| And wonder now what tomorrow will bring |
| Will you hear him screamin', will you hear him sing |
| (Manny Charlton) |
