Mos Def, Shuggie Otis - Blue Black Jack Lyrics

Black Jack
Was a fighting man
Black Jack
Was a mighty man

You stand them up
He knock them out
Yeah yeah
That's for real
You stand them up
He knock them down
Yeah yeah
That's the deal

Now sign them high
Hey hey hey hey
Up in the sky
Whoa oh woo

Break it down low
Whoa whoa
Break it off slow
Whoa whoa

Then shout it out
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah yeah

Black Jack
Was a fighting man
Black Jack
Was a mighty man

You stand them up
He knock them out
Yeah yeah
That's for real
You stand them up
He knock them down
Yeah yeah
That's the deal

Now sign them high
Hey hey hey hey
Up in the sky
Whoa oh woo

Break it down low
Whoa whoa
Break it off slow
Whoa whoa

Then shout it out
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah yeah

Who that boogie man
There that boogie man
Tackidy Tackidy Tap Tap Tap
Holdin' bread in hand

Go head work that band
Go head work it say
Talkin' the talk and walkin' the walk
Is what daddy do they say

Wear those pretty clothes
Drive them pretty cars
You a super hero
You a super star

You a super man
Go head fly yo cape
Blowin' in the wind
Let it touch the hand

Stand and fight and win
Snatch the crown again
Wit' yo mighty swing
And yo flashy smile

Let them see the light
You so black and bright
You so bright you black
Shinin' you cryin' to fight them back

Yeah yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
