Artist/Band: Jimi Hendrix
Lyrics for Song: Black Gold
Lyrics for Album: Other Songs - Jimi Hendrix



Black is gold is pure

And true kings of this earth.



1.



So I say it's up to us to straighten

Out this mess...

We got to go through hell...

And then that's the last of this

Miserable test...



2.



Black must be bold

Because it's gold and true

Kings of this world...

So let them go to the moon.

Yes let them go to mars.

Because deep down inside

They're really from the stars.



3.



That's why they don't want

Us to mix...just the way

The word of God had said.

So let them go to saturn...that's

Where they'll learn instead.

Because black and white

Together is right...

And white by itself is

An egotistic elf.



4.



So they show you how to

Kill...and if you don't

They will.

What do they know about

Happiness...

How can they about life...

They just got lost in space.

So when they landed,

Atlantis cried.



So if they're so alone try

To make them feel at home.

So let them fetch you fire wood.

And let them nibble on the bone.

So invent a word called love.

And then they blame our mistakes on god.

Don't you know how lonely they must be.

So many light years from home.

Hey soulful people I'm calling.

Don't be no more slaves.

Because God will protect us

When it comes to doomsday.

Realize before it's too late...

That no one on earth will escape.

We are the kings of earth.

And axis gonna put them slaves...

They killed so many worlds before.

But they will pass sentence upon themselves...

When the earth opens up...will

They be saved from our hell.



I feel the truth of life.

We better all realize...

People like me and you

We feel so bad, don't know

What to do... they keep us

High low on drugs.

And they got us making their rugs...

As we go dripping blood.

But the sun knows as

The wind blows and the

Fire grows towards the

Far shores and the water

Foams to make steamed

Bones of all of those who don't belive that...

Black is gold is the kings of this world.

We all better get our places

Before God tells us to our

Face we are...past the human race.

Let's pray that we all agree

We got to straighten out the family tree.

Life is for you and me togather.

That's the way it was meant to be.

White man watch your mouth

Because our drums, they face the south.

And you can't kill the god

That kept you alive between

The poles of the north and south.

You better adjust your place

In this world...before your

Hair, it starts to curl...and the

Yellow, red, and black of this

World will tear your ass and soul apart.



Where is he coming from ?

From heaven where 1,000,000

Worlds are one.

Where is he going to ?

He's going to make contact

With the living and the dead...

Here comes black gold...

Gather round young and old...

He's going to be felt by the

Timid and the bold...

Within a wink of an eye,



With the wink of an eye

Egos swell, bust and die...

Kingdoms fall and cry...

With the wink of an eye...

With the wink of an eye

A new born baby cries...

And a 100 soldiers die with

The wink of an eye.
