Queen Ifrica - Four Women

My skin is black
My arms are long
My hair is woolly
My back is strong
Strong enough to take the pain
Inflicted again and again
What do they call me?
My name is Aunt Sarah
My name is Aunt Sarah, Aunt Sarah
My skin is yellow
My hair is long
Between two worlds
I do belong
My daddy was rich and white
Forced my Mama late one night
What do they call me?
My name is Afronia
My name is Afronia
My skin is tan
My hair is fine
My hips invite you
My mouth like wine
Whose little girl am I?
Anyone who has money to buy
What do they call me?
My name is Sweet Thing
I say my name is Sweet Thing
My name is Sweet Thing
My skin is brown
My manner is tough
I'll kill the first fool I see
O’ my life has been rough
I'm awfully bitter these days
'Cause my parents were slaves
What do they call me?
My name is Peaches
I say my name is Peaches
My name is Peaches
Ye…
