nina simone - backlash blues lyrics
Loading...
mr. backlash, mr. backlash
just who do you think i am?
you raise my taxes, freeze my wages
and send my son to vietnam
you give me second cl-ss houses
and second cl-ss schools
do you think that all colored folks
are just second cl-ss fools?
mr. backlash
i’m gonna leave you
with the backlash blues
when i try to find a job
to earn a little cash
all you got to offer
is your mean old white backlash
but the world is big
big and bright and round
and it’s full of folks like me
who are black, yellow, beige and brown
mr. backlash
i’m gonna leave you
with the backlash blues
mr. backlash, mr. backlash
just what do you think i got to lose
i’m gonna leave you
with the backlash blues
you’re the one will have the blues
not me, just wait and see
