Judy Mowatt - Black Woman Lyrics

Black Woman (Judy Mowatt)

Black woman...
Black woman...
Like me you've struggled long
You have traveled on life's roughest road
And with the heaviest load
To be someone, to belong
But you're nearing your mile-and-a-half furlong
Don't give up now
Just pray for strenght now
For you I dedicate my song

We are the same ones in the plantations
With lashes to our skins
On auction blocks we were chained and cold
Branded merchandise
Carnally abuse
And scorned we were refused
And thrown in the garbage bin
But no need for that now
Just free yourself from that now
And help me to sing my song

When you're fighting stand up for the right thing
And not that wich is wrong
I heard Rachel mourning for her children
When Aaron and Pharoah took their little heads
But like Mary and like Joseph
The mother of Moses too
Overcame those evil devices
I dedicate my song for you

Black woman...
Black woman...
I know you've struggled long
I feel your affliction
For you I dedicate my song...
