That`s Why Darkies Were Born
Kate Smith
Henderson & Brown
Someone had to pick the cotton,
Someone had to pick the corn,
Someone had to slave and be able to sing,
That`s why darkies were born;
Someone had to laugh at trouble,
Though he was tired and worn,
Had to be contented with any old thing,
That`s why darkies were born;
Sing, sing, sing when you`re weary and
Sing when you`re blue,
Sing, sing, that`s what you taught
All the white folks to do;
Someone had to fight the Devil,
Shout about Gabriel`s Horn,
Someone had to stoke the train
That would bring God`s children to green pastures,
That`s why darkies were born.
