| I wanna jump the fence and wash my face in the creek |
| But I’m black myself |
| I wanna sweep that gal right off her feet |
| But I’m black myself |
| Tired of walkin' 'round with no shoes on |
| But I’m black myself |
| Your precious God ain’t gonna bless me |
| 'Cause I’m black myself |
| Is you washed in the blood of your chattel? |
| 'Cause the lamb’s rotted away |
| When they stopped shipping work horses |
| Bred your own anyway |
| I don’t pass the test of the paper bag |
| 'Cause I’m black myself |
| I pick the banjo up and they stare at me |
| 'Cause I’m black myself |
| You better lock your doors when I walk by |
| 'Cause I’m black myself |
| You look me in my eyes but you don’t see me |
| 'Cause I’m black myself |
| They’re washed in the blood of the chattel |
| 'Cause the lamb’s rotted away |
| When they stopped shipping work horses |
| They bred their own anyway |
| I don’t creep around, I stand proud and free |
| 'Cause I’m black myself |
| I go anywhere that I wanna go |
| 'Cause I’m black myself |
| I’m surrounded many lovin' arms |
| 'Cause I’m black myself |
| And I’ll stand my ground and smile in your face |
| 'Cause I’m black myself |
| I washed away my blood and tears |
| I’ve been born brand new |
| There’s no more work horses |
| But there’s still work to do |
| 'Cause I’m black myself (Black myself) |
| 'Cause I’m black myself (Black myself) |
| 'Cause I’m black myself (Black myself) |
| 'Cause I’m black myself |
| Black my-, black my-, black myself |
