Lyrics Gil Scott-Heron

Gil Scott-Heron

Alluswe

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 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
