Buffalo Soldier |
| Buffalo soldier, Buffalo soldier |
| Will you survive in this new land? |
| Buffalo soldier |
| Buffalo, Buffalo, Buffalo soldier |
| Tell me when will they call you, you a man? |
| In the eighteen-hundreds |
| In Arizona and Mexico |
| There came a brand new soldier, yeah |
| The Indians called him buffalo |
| From prison camps and slavery, lord |
| Oh the black man came to be |
| He was a hard riding hero |
| Of the tenth cavalry, hut-two-three |
| You know many other soldiers |
| Lord, they wanted to desert |
| They were tired of the hatred, yes they were |
| They were so tired of the hurt |
| Some of them were tired of the killin' |
| And of the misery, oh Lord |
| But they had to keep on fighting |
| So one day we would be free |
| We want to take a little time an' thank you right here |
| Buffalo soldier |
| (Buffalo soldier) |
| If you’d only listen to me, oh lord |
| Been a long, long time |
| I wonder will you survive in this land |
| Buffalo soldier |
| (Buffalo soldier) |
| Oh yeah |
| Please listen to me, mmm hmm |
| Tell me when, when will they call |
| You a man? |
| oh-ah |
| Tell me when |
| (When will they call you a man) |
| Will they call you a man? |
| Oh Lord, I wanna know when? |
| When will they call you a man? |
