Philip Lynott - Ode To A Black Man lyrics

If you see stevie wonder tell him i hear If you hear stevie wonder tell him i see I don't want no songs for plants I want songs for me I don't want no songs for plants I want liberty living in the city If you see the doctor tell him he's king, dr. martin luther If you see the doctor tell him he's still king, you too muhammed ali But this bad black boy won't be blown away by anything Yes this bad black boy won't be blown away by anything There are people in this town That try to put me down They say i don't give a damn But the people in this town That try to put me down Are the people in the town That could never understand a black man Don't take it no more Don't take it no more Don't take it no more There are people in the town That try to put me down They say i don't give a damn, damn But the people in the town that try to put me down Are the people in the town that could never understand a black man Don't take it no more If you see robert johnson, you too robert marley, robert mugabe Now tell him i hear If you see malcom tell him i'm next, vexed If you see jimi, jimi hendrix If you see my brothers tell them it's clear I've been living on the wrong side Now i hear Don't take it no more I don't take it no more Mr. joshua nkomo Don't take it no more Jomo kenyatta, oh no Don't take it no more Haile sela**i, rastafarian Don't take it no more Professor longhair Don't take it no more
