(Spoken)
This here song is about
Well,it's about
When your woman catches you.
Yeah.
She catches you runnin' around town
Gettin' into all kinda strange
Ha ha ha!
Yeah.
And you say, Baby now please
Don't put me out with the dogs!
And she says, Son
Get your lazy, two timin' negro ass
up outta here.
And all you can do is tell her...
(Sung)
You got to love your negro man
You got to love your negro man, whoo
You got to love your negro man
You got to love your negro man
You got to love love love love love
Your negro man
From early in the morning
To late at night
You know I love your apples
Let me take a bite
You got to love your negro man
You got to love your negro man
You got to love love love love love
Your negro man
I know I did you wrong
And that ain't right
Let me put it on your mama
Make you feel alright
You got to love your negro man
You got to love your negro man
You got to love love love love love
Your negro man
Hey!
Walk the walk man!
Whoo!

O let me pick somethin

(Guitar Solo)
Whoo!
Hey!
Uhn!

Don't you know

Cuz I like the dough
You got to love your negro man
You got to love your negro man
You got to love love love love love

You got to love love love love love

You got to love love love love love
your negro man
O you know you do now!
Whoa!
Oh!
Lord!
