Lyrics:
AFRICAN AMERICAN TRADITIONAL
I'm black Jamaican
Third I'm black American
First I'm an African man
Second I'm black Jamaican
Third I'm black American
First I'm an African
a 49-er autumnal changes?
Who? Native North American child
Sing about your ebony African Queen
Sing about your lily-white Lily Marleen
Beauty by
Aruba concluded
He now had a little money to spend
That's how I came to meet my African friend
We were rollin' the bones several hours
Conversing
This Is The African American Celebration Party
This Is The African American Celebration Party
This Is The African American Celebration Party
This Is
more, woh, deh, deh, lord, woh
[Chorus]
We, we are Africans
We, free Africans
We, we are Africans
We, free Africans
[Verse 1]
Down
of American Jerusalem
They buy an ounce of South African gold
They don't care who was bought or sold
Or who died to mine it
In the temples of American
Been feeling this way since I was sixteen, came to my senses
You never liked us anyway, fuck your friendship, I meant it
I'm African-American, I'm
the fancy
I don't think you fit the scene
You're just an American Black boy
I'm a French African Queen"
And she was tall and statuesque
She looked
Been feeling this way since I was sixteen, came to my senses
You never liked us anyway, fuck your friendship, I meant it
I'm African-American, I'm
couldn't take that African pace
Yes Mrs. Cleaver your son's home to stay
We all know it's the American Way
Yes, I'm gonna shake myslef loose
Back home
has, all African music in it
All African music, uh, exploiting itself of it, or coming out of it
All African influence in all it's music
And you
Full of Africans, sold in America
Now you want me to call myself American
Even though America kill di African
Check it, white man is European
have tremendous respect for those who paved
The way for the liberty and
Opportunities that African-Americans
Currently enjoy as a
Business owner who
Went to school in African-american studies
Once he had a picture taken with Adam Clayton Powell
She said her father looked like Woodrow Wilson
She
Mr Lover just a rock and swing
One more time
Somebody tell me if you fit the criteria
Give me a hot sexy gal from Liberia
Give me a African queen
American, you know, you gotta take out the word 'Afro'
Now they've relaxed I hear they might as well call us Toby
See, Afro and black are African, while
home
We've been taught to say our name, Afro-American, all the same
Not fully American but gettin' there very slowly
Cause to fully be American, you
We're live in 5, 4, 3, 2
Is this for real?
Kings, Queens, Brothers, Sisters
Moors, Israelites
African Americans, Blacks, Niggers
Niggerses, Niggas
his grace on Thee
You have whipped the Filipino
Now you rule the Western Sea
Americans dream of gypsies, I have found
And gypsy knives and gypsy
You just couldn't take that African pace
Yes, Mrs. Cleaver your son's home to stay
We all know it's the American way
Yes, I'm gonna shake myself
You just couldn't take that African pace
Yes, Mrs. Cleaver your son's home to stay
We all know it's the American way
Yes, I'm gonna shake myself
the north star
Shackles on my forearm , runnin with the gun on my palm
I'm an African , never was an African-American
Blacker than black I take it back to my
British
German
Egypt
Jewish
African American
Slavic
Black British
You Know what I'm saying
Feudalism
New Money
Moving Karma
