Colored Spade Lyrics


I'm a colored spade
A nigger, a black nigger
A jungle bunny, Jigaboo coon
Pickaninny mau mauUncle Tom, Aunt Jemima
Little Black SamboCotton pickin'
Swamp guinea
Junk man
Shoeshine boyElevator operator
Table cleaner at Horn and Hardart
Slave voodoo, zombie
Ubangi lippedFlat nose, tap dancin'
Resident of HarlemAnd president of
The United States of Love
President of
The United States of Love[Incomprehensible] this man at dinner
You're gonna have to feed himWatermelon, hominy grits
An' shortnin' bread
Alligator ribs and pig tails

Some black eyed peas
Hot chiliesSome watermelon hominy grits
An' shortnin' bread, alligator ribs
Piggy tails, black eyed peas
Collard greensAnd if you don't watch out
The boogie man will get you
Boo!Did you hear what he said about boogie man?
That guy has got to be outta his mind
I think he said boogie man, that sure is nasty
[That's somthing you said]

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
