Little Brown Blues

作曲：Dontrell Johnson

作词：Dontrell Johnson

I would have gone astray

Mmm

Had I known we‘d get betrayed

Or maybe I should have hurt them

After all they deserve

What’s coming their way

Am I a fool to want better

I thought that we were the same

Instead you got me here weeping

Peace marching and preaching

To remain a slave

Little brown blues

A war that I did not choose

Oh Little brown blues

Little brown blues

Little brown blues

Oh Little brown blues

There’s so much pain in these shoes

Oh Little brown blues

Little brown blues

Little brown blues

Now you’ve got me here ashamed

To say I feel this way

Who knew my heart will never change

About my own race

And loving this way

How could you turn me so on

I’m not so free all along

Making me feel so wrong

Believing I belong

In a cell or grave

Oh Little brown blues

Inanimate with no clue

Oh Little brown blues

Little brown blues

Little brown blues

Oh Little brown blues

There’s so much pain in these shoes

Oh Little brown blues

Little brown blues

Little brown blues

This is a sound of hope

A Penny for the wise we all float

A memory for the times we all quote

And forgiveness for the lies we all told

Forgive me for the times we lost soul

And forgive us for the times we sold for

30 Pieces we was greedy

Never resolved those

Issues we was issued

Generations of lost folk

I just want to fly away

I just want to fly away

To a dimension that heals all the cries of pain

And the times of strain

And the precision to fix all the eyes we can’t

And the lives we taint

And the resistance to fight again

Again

And again

Oh Little brown blues

Inanimate with no clue

Oh Little brown blues

Little brown blues

Little brown blues

Oh Little brown blues

There’s so much pain in these shoes

Oh, Little brown blues

Little brown blues

Little brown blues
