Lord Lord I wonder how long

'Fore I can change my dirty clothes
|
I wonder how long
|
'Fore I can change my dirty clothes
|
I haven't been doin' nothing
|
Whoo Lord Lord but walkin' up and down the road
|
|
People you know I know
|
I know how the poor people feel
|
You know I know
|
Jus' how the poor people feel
|
When you don't have nothin'
|
I know your life don't feel real
|
|
People call me black
|
I know every word they say is true
|
People call me black
|
I know every word they say is true
|
But there ain't nothin' in the world, whoo Lord Lord
|
A poor black man could do

President Reagan helped the rich
|
And he never say nothin' 'bout the poor
|
President Reagan helped the rich
|
and he never say nothin' 'bout the poor
|
But I'm so glad
|
He won't be president no more
|
|
What President Kennedy give us
|
Old Reagan's took it back
|
What President Reagan's [sic] give us
|
Old Reagan's took it back
|
He cut off the poor veteran, ooh Lord Lord
|
And he even took on the tax
|
|
But I'm so glad
|
President Reagan only got two more years
|
Yes I'm so glad
|
He only got two more years
|
And the world will be happy, ooh Lord Lod
|
And we won't shed no more tears
|
|
Got that woman on the White House,
|
She's blindfolded holdin' two scales
|
Got that woman on the lighthouse [sic],
|
She's blindfolded holdin' two scales
|
And they say the scales mean justice
|
Ooh Lord Lord for the white folks it mean just them(?)
