Mos Def - Black Jack Lyrics

Black Jack
Was a fighting man
Black Jack
Was a mighty man

You stand them up, he knock them out
Yeah yeah, that's the real
You stand them up, he knock them down
Yeah yeah, that's the deal

Now sign them high, hey hey hey
Up in the sky, whoa oh woo
Break it down low, whoa whoa
Break it off slow, whoa whoa

Then shout it out
Yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah

Black Jack
Was a fighting man
Black Jack
Was a mighty man

You stand them up, he knock them out
Yeah yeah, that's the real
You stand them up, he knock them down
Yeah yeah, that's the deal

Now sign them high, hey hey hey
Up in the sky, whoa oh woo
Break it down low, whoa whoa
Break it off slow, whoa whoa

Then shout it out
Yeah yeah yeah
Yeah yeah yeah

Who dat boogie man
There dat boogie man
Tackidy Tackidy Tap Tap Tap
Holdin' bread in hand

Go head work that band
Go head work it say
Talkin' the talk and walkin' the walk
Is what daddy do they say

Wear 'em pretty clothes
Drive them pretty cars
You a super hero
You a super star

You a super man
Go head fly yo cape
Blowin' in the wind
Let it touch the hand

Stand and fight and win
Snatch the crown again
Wit' yo mighty swing
And yo flashy smile

Let them see the light
You so black and bright
You so bright you black
Shinin' you cryin' to fight them back
