White boy in town
Big black, blue sound
Night Club, I paid in
I got a stamp on my skin.
Main attraction nearly dead on his feet
Black man rhythm with a white boy beat
They got him on milk and alcohol.
They got him on milk and alcohol.
Stay put, I wanna go
Hard work, bad show
More liquor don't help
He's gonna die, breaks my heart.
I decided that eventually
This ain't doin' a thing for me
They got him on milk and alcohol.
They got him on milk and alcohol.
They got him on milk and alcohol.
They got him on milk and alcohol.
They got him on milk and alcohol.
They got him on milk and alcohol.
Got up, I walked out
To the car, started up
Feel bad, sad night
Never saw a red light.
Sirens were screaming all around
I pulled on over and I shut her down
The black cop gave me a shove with his gun
Sit up against the wall and don't make a run.
