Black Man

Black man, black man.
Tall, strong, and so grand.
No one could compare to this man.
Black man, black man.

You big black man.
Baddest in all the land.
Ace Boon Coon of all your land.
Respected by all men.

Black man, black man.
Men shiver at the sound of your name.
Your voice booms with the sound of one who reigns.
Black man, black man.

Who is this black man?
Known to all in this land.
Named for greatness and called to stand.
Black man, black man.
