Black, Brown, And White - Big Bill Broonzy/Josh White[00:00:00]
This little song that I'm singin' about[00:00:09]
People you know it's true[00:00:13]
If you're black and gotta work for a living[00:00:17]
This is what they will say to you[00:00:21]
They said if you was white should be all right[00:00:23]
If you was brown stick around[00:00:28]
But as you black umm brother[00:00:32]
Get back get back get back[00:00:37]
I was in a place one night[00:00:44]
They was all having fun[00:00:47]
They was all buyin' beer and wine[00:00:51]
But they would not sell me none[00:00:54]
They said if you was white should be all right[00:00:57]
If you was brown stick around[00:01:02]
But if you're black umm brother[00:01:06]
Get back get back get back[00:01:11]
Me and a man was workin' side by side[00:01:18]
This is what it meant[00:01:21]
They was paying him a dollar an hour[00:01:25]
They was paying me fifty cent[00:01:28]
They said if you was white should be all right[00:01:31]
If you was brown stick around[00:01:36]
But as you black umm boy[00:01:40]
Get back get back get back[00:01:45]
I went to an employment office[00:01:52]
Got a number 'n' I got in line[00:01:55]
They called everybody's number[00:02:00]
But they never did call mine[00:02:03]
They said if you was white should be all right[00:02:05]
If you was brown stick around[00:02:10]
But as you black umm brother[00:02:14]
Get back get back get back[00:02:19]
I hope to win sweet victory[00:02:26]
With my plough and hoe[00:02:29]
Now I want you to tell me brother[00:02:33]
What you gonna do about the old Jim Crow [00:02:36]
Now if you was white should be all right[00:02:39]
If you was brown stick around[00:02:44]
But if you black oh brother[00:02:47]
Get back get back get back[00:02:53]
