There was a little black boy, Ah black boy was he The boy when to school and he come out duncy He never learn how to read, he never learn about Math He never learn how to write, he never study bout that All he study was his sneakers, his sneakers and clothes He learn how to dress, and he learn how to pose He cah get no work, he cah get no job He decide to steal, and he decide to rob But little black boy couldn't last long at all The police put ah bullet though he duncy head skull
(Gypsy - Little Black Boy Lyrics)
Little black boy, go to school and learn Little black boy, show come concern Little black boy, Education is the key To get you off the school and off poverty
Little black boy, go to school and learn Little black boy, show come concern Little black boy, Education is the key To get you off the street and all poverty
There was ah little black boy, ah rude boy was he All the boy ambition was to conduct ah maxi With ah ring in he nose, ah gold teeth in he mouth He feel very proud when they call him ah tout So proud was the boy, that the boy never learn He coulda work hard and buy a maxi of his own So he hustle for a dollar, he hustle for a smoke He hustle so dat he could buy ah lil coke Now he hook on de coke and off the maxi And one more lil black vagrant in the country
Little black boy, go to school and learn Little black boy, show come concern Little black boy, Education is the key To get you off the street and off poverty Little black boy, think bout yuh race Little black boy, when will you find yuh place Little black boy, go to school and learn
(Gypsy Lyrics - Little Black Boy Lyrics)
When you black, you just black, you cant help but be black But because you are black, you dont stay in the back Be black, be black, but be concious Be black, be black, but be concious
Look in the front see who's the doctor Look in the back, see who's the lawyer Look in the bank, see who's the banker Look at the business, who's the owner Look at the staff, see who's the worker Look at the drug, see who's the dan man Look who eating out ah dem garbage can Look in the jail see who you see dude A lot ah little black boy just like you
Little black boy, go to school and learn Little black boy, show some concern Little black boy, Education is the key To get you off the street and off poverty Little black boy, go to school and learn Little black boy, you have to show some concern Little black boy, think bout yuh race Little black boy, when would you find yuh place
Wo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo yo x2
Little black boy, take ah look at yuhself Little black boy, take ah look at yuhself Little black boy, put yuh guns on the shelf Little black boy, watch what yuh do Little black boy, take ah good look at you Little black boy, look at other people too Little black boy, is that the way you should be Little black boy, don't put drugs in yuh vein Little black boy, it will drive you insane Little black boy, and in yuh brain Little black boy, don't you be no fool Little black boy, keep yourself in school Little black boy
When you black, you just black, you cant help but be black But because you black, you don't have to stay back Be black, be black, but be concious Be black, be black, but be concious Be black, be black, but be concious (repeat)
