lirik lagu delroy williams – i stand black
[intro]
jah, jah, jah, jah, jah, jah
have mercy, yeah
[chorus]
i stand black, black and proud
i remember white men selling us by the pound
we were taken from our homes and brought to roam the hills
and work the sugar mills (work the sugar mills)
[verse 1]
to the west they brought african children
and taught them so~call civilization
deprived of our tribal tongue
english, spanish an’ french they taught to our young
although we were slave who work the ground
yet i stand black
[bridge]
in shackles an’ chain we toil each day
’til mister charlie come with little or no pay
we wеre young and had a contract, had a contract
oh yeah, yeah, jah jah is my culturе
[chorus]
i stand black, black and proud
say, i remember white men selling us by the pound
we were taken from our homes and brought to roam the hills
and work the sugar mills (work the sugar mills)
[outro]
yeah~yeah, yeah~yeah
they brought us here to work the sugar mills
and all, and all, all we have got is nil
yeah~yeah~yeah~yeah, yeah~yeah~yeah~yeah
we are so poor
