Cowboy's And Niggers

James Crow


The house next-door to me's been sold to nigger's
They claim to be wild indians, from the plains
Aw, but they ain't a-shuckin' me-they's colored people
We'll make cowboy's and nigger's.....our new game!

Last night when I come home I's warmly greeted
But not by my sweet wife saying, "Hello,dear."
Instead it was, "Hello dar, white mammy-jama!"
Says, "How does you like us dark folks....livin' yere?"

I'd sell my house, but I ain't had no offers
Though I payed $20,000, I'd take two
Cause this nigger-crap done killed all my red roses
And my vow-lets turned black, instead of blue!

Last night the NAACP came a-callin'
I didn't know what it was all about
Oh, but it didn't take me long to understand them
When they said, "Won't you kindly move your white butt out!"
