Walter Williams - Black & White

Clear as black and white, Gave in without a fight
The hand that feeds you never bite,
Cause it's clear as black, Black and white,
The man came knocking on my door one day
Said I'd wanna hear what he had to say
Son, you've got crude bubbling up right outside your door
He told me this was my lucky day
Before you know I'm driving this shiny car
Go anywhere near and far
Just keep pumping in that juice from sweet Louisiana
I'm steering toward that distant storm
Clear as black and white,
Gave in without a fight
The hand that feeds, you never bite,
Cause it's clear as black, Black and white,
I started missing my kinfolk back home
Lost all my desire to roam,
I headed down that path back home But couldn't find my way,
No land, no swamps, just one big bay
I hopped in a pirogue and started to row,
The further I went, my fears they would grow
No Mom, no Pop, no Uncle Joe, just water everywhere
Someone stole my home, I do declare
Clear as black and white,
Gave in without a fight
The hand that feeds you never bite,
Cause it's clear as black,
Black and white!
