They're So Tough

They're so tough

 They like to make us feel little
 They like to make us feel small
 And keep us down
 'Til we feel no good at all

 Then they tell us that we're stupid
 That we got no sense at all
 They'll ke away the spark
 Keep us in the dark
 Make us feel we have no vision at all

 CHORUS
 No, no, no, I don't believe it has to be this way
 No, I don't believe it has to be this way

 Then they tell us to be patient
 That our time will come
 But I've stood outside their doors
 And walked their floors
 And I ain't gonna do it again

 They'd like to make me their nigger
 I say to hell with them
 I'm not gettin' down on my knees
 And beggin' please
 Can you throw me a crumb now and then

 CHORUS

 I can't really speak to you
 And I don't know about them
 They must be out of their minds
 Can't read between the lines
 They can stick it where the sun don't shine

 CHORUS

 They're so tough

 They are so tough
