Lyrics for Black Man Strain
Why, why, why, oh yeah now, Must the black man strain? Why people, must he sweat and strain? He toil each day From dawn 'til dusk (yes a true) Tryin' to achieve (yes a true) The little he can (we know a true) But just can't make it (a really true) I wonder what's wrong (we know a true) What's wrong now? (a really true) Tell me, what's wrong... Why, why must the black man strain? I really wanna know people, now Must he sweat and strain? He toil each day From dawn 'til dusk (yes a true) Tryin' to achieve (yes a true) The little he can (we know a true) But just can't make it (a really true) I wonder what's wrong (we know a true) What's wrong now? (a really true) Tell me, what's wrong... Why, why must the black man strain? I really wanna know people, now Must he sweat and strain? Tell me, tell me Must the black man strain? I really wanna know people, now Must he sweat and strain?
