Lyrics Gil Scott–Heron – Alluswe
Text:
Like the weight he’s got to ride on
On the scene he must came in
Like the answers to every question
That’s what he needs — They’d understand
Black man come down
And sit beside us
You can share all that we have
And sit beside us
You can share all that we have
And like the stage he’s got t play on
Like the road he’s pinning down
Life attacts him just like a magnet
Or was that the other way around
Black man come down
Come on down and sit beside us
You are welcomed to all we own
Upside the walls and in the corners
Of the rooms where we live
Love is stronger with every heartbeat
And this love we gladly give
Just come on down
And sit beside us
Can your mind believe your heart
Black man come down
Yea, come on down, down
