City don't give a goddamn 'bout a black boy like me
(City don't give a goddamn 'bout a black boy like me)
City don't give a goddamn 'bout a black man like me
But the city damn near know dat dis pretty black man go free
(Oh) never had a dollar to my name
(Oh) daddy never stuck around neither
(Oh) mama got her head down in shame, mm
(Oh) never been avid reader
Walkin' to the edge of town
Satchel and smile, drop yo' knees down to the ground
Handsome, pretty eyes make your wife and nem hawt
I mean if I get up outta here, this jukebox gon' hop, yeah
City don't give a goddamn 'bout a black boy like me
(City don't give a goddamn 'bout a black boy like me)
City don't give a goddamn 'bout a black man like me
But the city damn near know dat dis pretty black man go free
Ooh-whoo, black man go free, ooh-whoo
Ooh-whoo, black man go free, ooh-whoo
Trains laid down a path, a path I couldn't see
These medals won't ever change that they treatin' me rotten
This boy done chose war, wasn't no draftee
Souls that didn't fall, we was forgotten
Walkin', these steps leadin' me nowhere
Inkslinger lay heavy 'bout boyhood and blond hair
Got me in a space I's never meant to be
Grey hair judge, blue eyed cop, white faced jury
Walkin', I, I thinkin' 'bout that night
Exhibit one, my black skin cause threat upon my life
Force-fed, these words were never mine to swallow
Mama, mama, please don't let them take me to the gallows
(Ah-whoo) black boy like me
(Ah-whoo, city don't give a goddamn 'bout a black boy like me) take me to the gallows
(Ah-whoo) mama, mama (black man like me)
(Ah-whoo, city don't give a goddamn 'bout a black boy like me) take me to the gallows
Mama, mama (black boy like me)
Mama, mama (city don't give a goddamn 'bout a black boy like me)
Mama, mama (ah, black man like me)
Mama, mama (city don't give a goddamn 'bout a black boy like me)
Please don't let them take me to the gallows
