One of the black boys said
But stick about, take note
Because standing on the corner
Like rolling dice, nice
I'm a little black boy and I don't know my place
One of the black boys said
A new suit, pretty boots to boot
Of course standing on the corner
Like playing poker, joker
I'm a little black boy and I don't know my proper place
"I need none of your pity"
It's your mama that don't
Like you loose in the city
Take a tip, take no back lip
Come come a little closer
Let me see you snap your fingertip
Just might suit you or maybe baby
There's something else you wanna do
Like shooting pool, hey that's cool
I'm just a little black boy, I just threw my ace
I'm a little black boy, recognize my face
"I'm a giving a warning"
"People been putting me down"
"I'm so tired I'm yawning"
And I'm feeling slick
Gonna go to town, look around
And pull a chick
Might suit you or maybe baby
There's something else that you wanna do
Like to back a race, ace
I'm a little black boy, get my head in its space
I'm a little black boy, I just play my bass
I'm a little black boy, it's no disgrace
