Whiteman's Ballad
(originale)
I saw the whiteman coming
He gets off his plane
He gets in his land-rover
And heads from the mines
I saw the whiteman coming
Coming to steal
And to rape
And he calls it business
I saw the black man waiting
Ready to rob his brothers
And to give away his sisters
For a couple of US dollars
I saw the black nurses wondering
Wondering why
They keep sending all these white nurses
To take away their jobs
I saw Art and Tom coming
They get off the train
They’re all geared up to record
And they’re kind of insane
I saw the white girls coming
Coming to get
What they can’t get at home
It’s cheap it’s fun
And it don’t last too long
I saw the businessmen coming
Cheatin' on their wives
With underage girls
Buzzing around their hives
I saw you coming back a year ago
Won’t you please tell me more
All about your voyage
All the things that you did
All the people you met
Now I wanna know
My blue eyed son
All the cars that you drove
All the girls you’ve been fooling around with
I saw the whiteman coming
Coming to steal
And to rape
And he calls it business
I saw you coming back a year ago
(traduzione)
Ho visto arrivare il bianco
Scende dal suo aereo
Sale sulla sua land rover
E teste dalle miniere
Ho visto arrivare il bianco
Venendo per rubare
E per stuprare
E lo chiama affari
Ho visto l'uomo di colore in attesa
Pronto a derubare i suoi fratelli
E per dare via le sue sorelle
Per un paio di dollari USA
Ho visto le infermiere nere che si chiedevano
Chiedersi perché
Continuano a mandare tutte queste infermiere bianche
