Ode To A Black Man by Philip Lynott


If you see stevie wonder tell him i hear

If you hear little stevie wonder tell him i see

I don't want no songs for plants i want songs for me

I don't want no songs for plants i want liberty

I'm livin' in the city

 

If you see the doctor tell him he's king

(dr. martin luther)

If you see the doctor tell him he's still king

(you too muhammed ali)

 

But this bad black boy

Won't be blown away by anything

Yes this bad black boy

Won't be blown away by anything

 

There are people in this town that try to put me down

They say "i don't give a damn"

([incomprehensible])

But the people in this town that try to put me down

Are the people in the town

That could never understand a black man

Don't take it no more

Don't take it no more

Don't take it no more

 

There are people in this town that try to put me down

They say "i don't give a damn damn"

But the people in this town that try to put me down

Are the people in the town

That could never understand a black man

 

Don't take it no more

 

If you see robert johnson tell him i hear

(you too robert marley robert mugabe)

If you see malcom tell him i'm next vexed

If you see jimi jimi hendrix

 

If you see my brothers tell them it's clear

I've been living on the wrong side but now i hear

I've been living on the wrong side but now i hear

 

Don't take it no more

Don't take it no more

 

Mr. joshua nkomo

He don't take it no more

Jomo kenyatta oh no

He don't take it no more

Haile selassi rastafarian

Don't take it no more

Professor longhair

Don't take it no more
