Goat Head

Goat Head - Brittany Howard

Lyrics by：Brittany Howard

Composed by：Brittany Howard

See tomatoes are green

And cotton is white

My heroes are black

So why God got blue eyes

My daddy he stayed

My grandmama's a maid

My mama was brave

To take me outside

'Cause mama is white

And daddy is black

When I first got made

Guess I made these folks mad

See I know my colors see

But what I wanna know is

Who slashed my dad's tires and put

A goat head in the back

I guess I wasn't supposed to know

That too bad

I guess I'm not supposed to mind

'Cause I'm brown I'm not black

But who said that

See I'm black I'm not white

But I'm that nah nah I'm this right

I'm one drop of three-fifths right

Goat head in the back

Goat head in the back

Goat head in the back

Goat head in the back

Goat head in the back

Goat head in the back

Goat head in the back

Goat head in the back

Goat head in the back
