lyrics

Poor Black Children got to work all the sun
Poor Black Children got to work all the sun
Poor Black Children got to work all day
Picking that cotton , bailing that Hay
Oh Black Child your work is never done
Oh Black Child your work is never done
If I had wings, I’ll fly far away from here
If I had wings, I’ll fly far away from here
If I had wings I’ll fly far away
Try to find Lord a good resting place

Oh Black Child you know your work is never done
Momma said son don’t you let ‘em bring your spirit down
Momma said son don’t you let ‘em bring your spirit down
Momma said son don’t you let’em get you down
Keep a song in your heart all day long

Oh my child your time will surly come.
Oh my child your time will surly come
One of these days all the people gonna open their eyes
One of these days all the people gonna open their eyes
One of these days all the people gonna see
Everybody comes from the same old tree
Oh my child one day their finally see
All God’s children comes from the same old tree

One of these days all the people gonna open their eyes
One of these days all the people gonna open their eyes
One of these days all the people gonna see
Everybody comes from the same old tree
Oh my child one day they’ll finally see
All God’s children comes from the same old tree
Apple tree, peach tree , plum tree, cheery tree
