4. It is a remix of "Gold Digger"
Remixed by The Legendary K.O, Words by Big Mon and Damien a/k/a Dem Knock-Out Boyz.

Kanye West did not authorize this, I'm sure.

It's very well done, IMHO.

He generally plays it coming back from commercials. Maybe it was made from another song...Name Game....I digress.

62. Lyrics the hard way...
Edited on Fri Sep-09-05 07:26 PM by mcscajun
...I couldn't find a link anywhere...

So...for the first time in my life I not only listened to an entire rap song...I listened until I got all the lyrics.
Here ya' go:

Starts off with Kanye West's line (spoken)

"George Bush doesn't care about Black People"

I ain't saying he's a gold digger
but he ain't messin' with no broke niggas
I ain't saying he a gold digger
but he ain't messin' with no broke niggas

George Bush don't LIKE Black People
George Bush don't LIKE Black People
George Bush don't LIKE Black People
George Bush don't LIKE Black People

Hurricane came through fucked us up 'round here
Government acting like it bad luck down here
All I know is that you better bring some trucks 'round here
Wonder why I got my middle finger up 'round here

People lives on the line you decline any help
Since you takin' so much time We survivin' ourself
Just me and my pets and my kids and my spouse
trapped in my own house lookin' for a way out

Five days in this motherfucking attic
Can’t use the cellphone I keep getting static
Dying ’cause they lying 'stead of telling us the truth
Other day the helicopters got my neighbors off the roof
We screwed ’cause they say they’re coming back for us, too
That was three days ago I don’t see no rescue
See a man's gotta do what a man's gotta do
Since God made the path that I'm tryin' to walk through

Swam to the store, tryin’ to look for food
Corner store’s kinda flooded so I broke my way through
I got what I could but before I got through
The news say police shot a black man tryin' to loot (Loot?)

George Bush don't LIKE Black People
George Bush don't LIKE Black People
George Bush don't LIKE Black People
George Bush don't LIKE Black People

I ain't sayin' he a gold digger
but he ain't lookin' for no broke niggas
I ain't sayin' he a gold digger
but he ain't checkin' with no broke niggas

George Bush don't LIKE Black People
George Bush don't LIKE Black People
George Bush don't LIKE Black People
George Bush don't LIKE Black People

Five damn days, five long days
and at the end of the fifth he walkin' in like "Hey!"
Chillin' on his vacation sitting patiently
Them Black folks gotta hope, gotta wait and see
If FEMA really comes through in an emergency
but nobody seems to have a sense of urgency

Now the latest we're reduced to crime
I guess Bush said really niggas used to dyin'
He said "I know it looks bad just have to wait
Forgive me folks, we're too broke to evacuate"

Niggas starvin' and they dyin' of thirst
but he had to go and check the new refineries first
making a killin' off the price of gas
he woulda been up in Connecticut twice as fast
after all that we been through nothin' has changed
you can call Red Cross but the fact remains that

George Bush ain't a gold digger
but he ain't fuckin' with no broke niggas
George Bush ain't a gold digger
but he ain't fuckin' with no broke niggas

Come down Bush, come on, come down
Come down Bush, come on, come down
Come down Bush, come on, come down
Come down Bush, come on, come down

George Bush ain't a gold digger
George Bush don't LIKE Black People
George Bush don't LIKE Black People
George Bush don't LIKE Black People

Come down George, come on, come down
Come down George, come on, come down
Come down George, come on, come down
Come down George, come on, come down

...it's possible someone will grab the lyric off the iTunes function...and we'll find out if I had any errors.

It's highly probable...I'm just a middle-aged white lady, after all. :rofl:

Edited on Fri Sep-09-05 09:45 PM by mcscajun
I couldn't have told you.

If you had told me last week I'd be listening Hard to a rap song...I'd have told you not before Hell Froze Over.

So much for that...where are my ice skates? :rofl:

18. WOW! I love the way the track mixes two elements
Edited on Fri Sep-09-05 03:04 PM by BeHereNow
The guy singing in the back ground,
(I think he is saying,)
"He kill me more, when I am down..."
sounds like something you would hear in a
NO blues club, traditional blues etc...
juxatposed against the more modern track.
VERY cool track.
Hope someone thinks to set up a loud speaker
in front of the white house to play a loop of it night and day...
Heh-Heh...

53. The guy in the background is Ray Charles...
...singing "She gives me money when I'm in need"

The sample is from the song "I Got a Woman" by Ray Charles

I knew it was the real thing.
Couldn't make out the lyrics in the mix,
but the voice was unmistakably old school.
No surprise to learn it is Ray.
Thanks for the extra info.

Edited on Fri Sep-09-05 10:17 PM by Melodybe
he was so eloquent, I loved him for being the first rapper to talk about accepting homosexuality.

I am so proud of him, he has continuously blown me away, Kanye rocks.

28. Listen to college radio- it'll open your mind.
I pride myself on having listened to every genre and every new piece of ecclectic music that has come out over the last few decades. Maybe I have just been on the business end of our government, but for whatever reason, I have found hiphop and rap to be very relevant to the things we hold important at DU.
Listen to Brujeria sometime. It's more of a metal band. Mexican. They do a piece on Gov. Pete Wilson. Very intense.

Kick for the sick.

"Come down George, come on down."

George wants a white world. He thinks he can get rid of all the things he doesn't like. I've got news george, you're wasting everybody's time. Are the lessons of history completely lost on this administration?????


Thanks for posting this. As much as it hurts, it feels good to hear the words.

One can only hope this will galvanize people into action against the murderous people who have infested the U.S. government.

We are still lacking a leader, however. Anyone out there want to get "suicided"?

73. Never fear, you won't hear it in your elevator
But people who live out there will hear it.

It will not do harm to the Lawrence Welk set, ya gotta hear it to be affected....and odds are, they do not listen to venues who will feature it.

I'm old, I own ZERO rap records (or should I say CDs or MP3s, in the current lingo) and I loved it. It's the Ray Charles on the back beat that hooks me, and keeps me listening to the truth to power lyrics...

93. I recently got one, she is full of beans
...and a load of fun. She's quite energetic, but can also be calm. Gets along well with the rest of the menagerie, too. Smart as a whip, very curious, and good-natured...but she does not realize how small she is, she thinks she is a Doberman, I think.

And the avatar will stay up until she is fully housebroken!!! (She's learning, but not quite there yet....).

94. I grew up with a Westie.
She lives with my parents now... I got her when I was 12. (almost 14 years ago)
Unfortunately, when I left for college, she had to stay back in NYC with the adults in the family.

Funny you mentioned a Doberman- When she was a puppy, my parents and I took her to the beach. An off leash doberman charged up to her, my mom (who was holding the leash) froze. My doggie let out a loud "WOOF! ARFFF!! WOOF!" And the doberman rolled over and flopped next to her, all 4 paws in the air, totally submissive to this little 8 pould Westie puppy!

The smartest thing that we ever did when housebreaking her was to teach her to use a litter box. (without litter- we used newspaper) She also goes outside, but when the weather is really bad, there's no need to take her outside "to do her business!"

I love westies. They're so cute. :-)

63. Lyrics the hard way...
Edited on Fri Sep-09-05 07:26 PM by mcscajun
...I couldn't find a link anywhere...

So...for the first time in my life I not only listened to an entire rap song...I listened until I got all the lyrics.

Here ya' go:

Starts off with Kanye West's line (spoken)

"George Bush doesn't care about Black People"

I ain't saying he's a gold digger
but he ain't messin' with no broke niggas
I ain't saying he a gold digger
but he ain't messin' with no broke niggas

George Bush don't LIKE Black People
George Bush don't LIKE Black People
George Bush don't LIKE Black People
George Bush don't LIKE Black People

Hurricane came through fucked us up 'round here
Government acting like it bad luck down here
All I know is that you better bring some trucks 'round here
Wonder why I got my middle finger up 'round here

People lives on the line you decline any help
Since you takin' so much time We survivin' ourself
Just me and my pets and my kids and my Spouse
trapped in my own house lookin' for a way out

Five days in this motherfucking attic
Can’t use the cellphone I keep getting static
Dying ’cause they lying 'stead of telling us the truth
Other day the helicopters got my neighbors off the roof
We screwed ’cause they say they’re coming back for us, too
That was three days ago I don’t see no rescue
See a man's gotta do what a man's gotta do
Since God made the path that I'm tryin' to walk through

Swam to the store, tryin’ to look for food
Corner store’s kinda flooded so I broke my way through
I got what I could but before I got through
The news say police shot a black man tryin' to loot (Loot?)

George Bush don't LIKE Black People
George Bush don't LIKE Black People
George Bush don't LIKE Black People
George Bush don't LIKE Black People

I ain't sayin' he a gold digger
but he ain't lookin' for no broke niggas
I ain't sayin' he a gold digger
but he ain't checkin' with no broke niggas

George Bush don't LIKE Black People
George Bush don't LIKE Black People
George Bush don't LIKE Black People
George Bush don't LIKE Black People

Five damn days, five long days
and at the end of the fifth he walkin' in like "Hey!"
Chillin' on his vacation sitting patiently
Them Black folks gotta hope, gotta wait and see
If FEMA really comes through in an emergency
but nobody seems to have a sense of urgency

Now the latest we're reduced to crime
I guess Bush said really niggas used to dyin'
He said "I know it looks bad just have to wait
Forgive me folks, we're too broke to evacuate"

Niggas starvin' and they dyin' of thirst
but he had to go and check the new refineries first
making a killin' off the price of gas
he woulda been up in Connecticut twice as fast
after all that we been through nothin' has changed
you can call Red Cross but the fact remains that

George Bush ain't a gold digger
but he ain't fuckin' with no broke niggas
George Bush ain't a gold digger
but he ain't fuckin' with no broke niggas

Come down Bush, come on, come down
Come down Bush, come on, come down
Come down Bush, come on, come down
Come down Bush, come on, come down

George Bush ain't a gold digger
George Bush don't LIKE Black People
George Bush don't LIKE Black People
George Bush don't LIKE Black People

Come down George, come on, come down
Come down George, come on, come down
Come down George, come on, come down
Come down George, come on, come down

64. FYI, iTunes 5 supports lyric.
You can now save lyrics along with artwork with the newest version of iTunes. Just "Get Info" for a song and cut and paste the lyrics into the "Lyrics" tab.

This is the first time I'm using the feature. :-)

67. Well that's great.
Then maybe someone (not me...I don't do the iTunes thing) can grab 'em and maybe find out my 'lyrics the hard way' aren't quite right.

I wouldn't be surprised...I'm a middle-aged white lady. :rofl: Rap ain't ma thang. :)

I listened to the song and this is what I heard. Correct if they're wrong.

Hurricane came though, fucked us up around here
Government actin' like it's bad luck down here
All I know is you gotta bring some trucks around here
Wonder why I got my middle finger up around here
Peoples lives on the line, you declining to help
Since you taking so much time, we surviving ourself
Just me and my pets and my kids and my spouse
trapped in my own house looking for a way out

five days in this motherfucking attic
can't use the cell phone, I keep getting static
Dying cause they lying, instead of telling us the truth
the other day the hellicopters got my neighbors off the roof
it's cool cause they said they're coming back for us too
that was three days ago, I don't see no rescue
See a man's gotta do what a mans gotta do
since God's made the path and I'm trying to walk through

swam to the store trying to look for food
corner store's kinda flooded so I broke my way through
I got what I could but before I got through
the news said the police shot a black man trying to loot

George Bush don't like black people
George Bush ain't a golddigger, but he aint messing with no broke niggas

five damn days, five long days
and at the end of the fifth, he walkin' in like 'heyyy'
chillin on his vacation sitting patiently
them black folks gotta hope, gotta wait and see
if FEMA really comes through in an emergency
but no body seems to have a sense of urgency
now the ladys been reduced to crying
I guess Bush said niggas been used to dying

he said I know it looks bad just have to wait
forgettin folks who too broke to evacuate
niggas starvin and they dying of thirst
I bet he has to go an check on them refineries first
makin a killing off the price of gas
he would have been up in Connecticut twice as fast
after all that we've been though, nothings changed
you can call RedCross but the fact remains

George Bush don't like black people
George Bush ain't a golddigger, but he aint fucking with no broke niggas

Come down Bush, come on, come down

89. That's right. Lot of white people standing w/ people of color against
racisim. And I'm proudly one of them. I share their outrage! And we all know this ain't nothing new. People of color have been bearing the brunt of fascist racism and classism for WAY too long. It's time to turn this shit around and take our Constitution back!

I normally steal all my music off of usenet but I'm going out tomorrow to buy a K.W. cd and support this artist and his message. It's about time we had a strong voice. If it has to be a hip-hop star instead of our elected democratic leadership then so be it. I'll take it where I can get it.
