Eric Bibb - Bourgeois Blues lyrics
[Eric Bibb - Bourgeois Blues lyrics]
And everywhere we went people turned us down
Lord, in a bourgeois town
It's a bourgeois town
I got the bourgeois blues
Gonna spread the news all around
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
Wе were standing upstairs
We hеard the white man say "I
Don't want no niggers up there"
Lord, in a bourgeois town
Uhm, the bourgeois town
I got the bourgeois blues
Gonna spread the news all around
Well, them white folks in
Washington sure know how
To call a colored man a nigga
Just to see him bow
Lord, it's a bourgeois town
Uhm, it's a bourgeois town
I got the bourgeois blues
Gonna spread the news all around
I tell the colored folks to all listen to me
Don't try to find you no home in Washington
DC 'Cause it's a bourgeois town
Uhm, it's a bourgeois town
I got the bourgeois blues
Gonna spread the news all around
