Worth revisiting...Thanks for the OP.

"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

the other day if I had this saved. Now I don't have to wonder any more. :yourock:

on the way to work yesterday. A classic.

static...

on the radio...I almost thought it was the Bush version at first! Who did the first version, and does anyone know what record was sampled to make the base groove? It sounds like a blues record of some sort...

Todd in Beerbratistan

I hope someone else here does.

It's called 'Gold Digger'

The sample is from 'I got a woman' by Ray Charles but the Kanye sample also has Jamie Foxx singing as Ray.

How can a poor man stand such times and live,
by Bruce Springsteen

Well, the doctor comes 'round here with his face all bright
And he says "in a little while you'll be alright"
All he gives is a humbug pill, a dose of dope and a great big bill
Tell me, how can a poor man stand such times and live?
He says "me and my old school pals had some might high times down here
And what happened to you poor black folks, well it just ain't fair"
He took a look around gave a little pep talk, said "I'm with you" then he took a little walk
Tell me, how can a poor man stand such times and live?
There's bodies floatin' on Canal and the levees gone to Hell
Martha, get me my sixteen gauge and some dry shells
Them who's got got out of town
And them who ain't got left to drown
Tell me, how can a poor man stand such times and live?
I got family scattered from Texas all the way to Baltimore
And I ain't got no home in this world no more
Gonna be a judgment that's a fact, a righteous train rollin' down this track
Tell me, how can a poor man stand such times and live?

acting like it's bad luck down here...
