lirik lagu ry cooder – bourgeois blues
(huddie ledbetter/alan lomax)
(g7) – (c7) – (g) – (d7)
(g7) me and my wife went all over town
and everywhere we went people turned us down
lord, in a (c7) bourgeois town
it’s a (g) bourgeois town
i got the (d7) bourgeois blues
gonna spread the news all a- (g) round
home of the brave, land of the free
i don’t wanna be mistreated by no bourgeoisie
lord, in a bourgeois town
uhm, the bourgeois town
i got the bourgeois blues
gonna spread the news all around
well, me and my wife we were standing upstairs
we heard the white man say “i don’t want no n-gg-rs up thereâ€
lord, in a bourgeois town
uhm, bourgeois town
i got the bourgeois blues
gonna spread the news all around
well, them white folks in washington they know how
to call a colored man a n-gg-r just to see him bow
lord, it’s a bourgeois town
uhm, the bourgeois town
i got the bourgeois blues
gonna spread the news all around
i tell all the colored folks to listen to me
don’t try to find you no home in washington, dc
‘cause it’s a bourgeois town
uhm, the bourgeois town
i got the bourgeois blues
gonna spread the news all around
