Levee Song Testo

Testo Levee Song

i won't sell my soul but i'll rent it make a little money and then spend it i'm not ambitious as such but the little i want i want a little too much i work for a man with a handlebar mustache who's a son of a bitch but he pays cash he's on my tail every hour of the day and he's always saying how he could get a black kid to do what i did for half of what he's paying me now I'm going down to the levee to watch those ships and think how something as heavy as my heart doesn't sink i work with a man named jack i don't trust that man behind my back he says he's gonna get a gun he's gonna shoot someone and that someone is gonna be black "if you're gonna do it right better do it white" says jack
