Black Man's Pride

When the black man's word was spoken, yes

And the white folks thought it was a token, ooh

We have suffered our whole lives through

Doing things that you're not supposed to do, no

We were beaten 'til our backs were black and blue

Oh I, I was born a loser

Oh I, I was born a loser

Because I'm a black man

I was living in my own land

I was moved because of white man's plan

Now I am living in a white man's land

We don't want no war or fighting, oh no

All we need is love and some living, ooh

We must try and live with each other

Knowing that we were made by our Father

We have suffered our whole lives through

Oh I, I was born a loser

Oh I, I was born a loser

Because I'm a black man

I was living in my own land

I was moved because of white man's plan

And now I am living in a white man's land

Hey man

Oh oh oh well, yeah yeah

Yeah, yeah, yeah

Still I'm living

I've got to keep on the going

Oh oh
