Just listen
to this song
I'm singing brother, you know it's true
If you're black and gotta
work for a living boy,
this is what they'll do
Now if you're white, you're all right
And if you're brown, stick around
But if you're black, whoa brother
Get back, get back, get back
I was in a place one night
They was all having fun
They was all drinking beer and wine,
but me, I couldn't have none.
Cause if you're white, you're alright.
And if you're brown,
stick around.
But if you're blind, oh brother,
get back, get back, get back.
I was in an unemployment office,
I got a number and stood in line.
They called everybody's number,
but they never did call mine.
Cause if you're white, you're alright,
and if you're brown,
ah, stick around.
But if you're blind, oh brother,
you gotta get back, get back,
get back.
I have built this country,
I fought for it,
too. Now I want to know
what you're going to do
about Jim Crow.
Cause if you're white,
you're alright
And if you're brown, oh stick around
But if you're black, oh brother
Get back, get back, get back
