That's Why Darkies Were Born - Paul Robeson (罗伯逊)/Helen Forrest[00:00:01]
Someone had to pick the cotton[00:00:59]
Someone had to pick the corn[00:01:04]
Someone had to slave and be able to sing[00:01:10]
That's why darkies were born;[00:01:16]
Someone had to laugh at trouble[00:01:22]
Though he was tired and worn[00:01:28]
Had to be contented with any old thing[00:01:33]
That's why darkies were born;[00:01:40]
Sing sing sing when you're weary and[00:01:46]
Sing when you're blue[00:01:50]
Sing sing that's what you taught[00:01:52]
All the white folks to do;[00:01:56]
Someone had to fight the Devil[00:01:59]
Shout about Gabriel's Horn[00:02:04]
Someone had to stoke the train[00:02:09]
That would bring God's children to green pastures[00:02:13]
That's why darkies were born.[00:02:21]
