Whiteboy Lyrics - Manny Charlton

Send him to the fields, send him to the wars 

Send him on down to slave on the farms 

Steal his land, rob his soul 

Send him on down to dig that hole 

Give him no hope, give him no trial 

Put him in chains, break that smile 

Pull that barge, tote that bale 

Listen to him singin', hear him wail 

You wouldn't do that to a whiteboy 

You wouldn't do that to a whiteboy 

You wouldn't do that to a whiteboy 

Give him no peace, give him no rest 

Teach him to believe your God is the best 

Sail him away, to the promised land 

Send him on down into his masters hand 

Take his woman, take his child 

Take him on down to the murder mile 

Pull that barge, tote that bale 

What's that song you hear him wail 

Now you wonder why he's an angry man 

Why there's fire in your father's land 

And wonder now what tomorrow will bring 

Will you hear him screamin', will you hear him sing. 

(manny charlton)
