Lord tell me why a white man ain't worth nothing in this world no more |
|
Lord tell me how you 'spect me to stand up tall and proud |
|
I did just what you told |
|
I done everything you said |
|
But the way |
|
I'm doing lately |
|
I could have stood in bed |
|
So Lord tell me why a white man ain't worth nothing in this world no more |
|
Lord tell me when a white man's gonna be all right again |
|
Please fix it |
|
Lord they took back everything we been working for |
|
When the riots tore our city |
|
I stood watch outside our home |
|
My kids crying daddy why can't they leave us alone |
|
Split level in |
|
Valencia where the cops reside |
|
We had to walk away and leave old memories inside |
|
Lord tell me why a white man ain't worth nothing in this world no more |
|
You can walk across the silvery moon and get back home all right |
|
But it ain't safe to walk the streets of your home town at night |
|
I'm a Lord man from the |
|
Lord land |
