The Blues: Get Back - Big Bill Broonzy

This little song that I'm singing about

People you all know that it's true

If you're black and gotta work for living

Now this is what they will say to you

They says if you're white

You's alright

If you was brown

Stick around

But if you's black oh brother

Get back get back get back

I was in a place one night

They was all havin' fun

They was all buyin' beer and wine

But they would not sell me none

They said if you was white

You's alright

If you was brown

You could stick around

But as you's black hmm hmm brother

Get back get back get back

I went to an employment office

I got a number I got in line

They called everybody's number

But they never did call mine

They said if you was white

You's alright

If you was brown

You could stick around

But as you's black hmm hmm brother

Get back get back get back

Me and a man was workin' side by side

Now this is what it meant

They was payin' him a dollar an hour

And they was payin' me fifty cent

They said if you was white

You'd be alright

If you was brown

You could stick around

But as you's black oh brother

Get back get back get back

I helped win sweet victories

With my plow and hoe

Now I want you to tell me brother

What you gonna do 'bout the old Jim crow

Now if you is white

You's alright

If you's brown

Stick around

But if you's black

Hmm brother

Get back get back get back
