lirik lagu phil ochs - colored town (demo)
[verse 1]
just across the railroad track
on the far side of the town
all the people there are black
and they live in colored town, colored town
[verse 2]
speeding cars down the highway run
they never stop to look around
one place that the highway shuns
and that place is colored town, colored town
[verse 3]
the owners of the local stores
the owners of the local ground
they’re walking on a finer floor
skin’s too white for colored town, colored town
[verse 4]
on the sidewalk children play
in the gutters watch them clown
white world is so far away
so far away from colored town, colored town
[verse 5]
in the early of the day
for the white homes they are bound
as a janitor, as a maid
they leave their place in colored town, colored town
[verse 6]
come the evening, come the wine
come the dancing music sound
liquor knows no color line
not even down in colored town, colored town
[verse 7]
a prison with no prison guards
where no padlocks can be found
a jail without no cells and bars
but you’ll never escape from colored town, colored town
[verse 8]
come, let’s open all the doors
from birmingham to harlem’s ground
from jackson to chicago’s shores
let’s take a look at colored town, colored town
come take a look at colored town, colored town
