grande Ord River, 1930, talvez
Her mother was black, her daddy white
A mãe dela era negra, o pai dela era branco
Papa was a fine horse-breaker
Papai era um bom domador de cavalos
Mama sang the songs of the old lawmakers
Mamãe cantou as músicas dos antigos legisladores
She used to hide young Queenie in the bush
Ela costumava esconder a jovem Queenie no mato
And rub black charcoal all over her hair and her face
E esfregue carvão preto em todo o cabelo e no rosto
Every time the police came around
Toda vez que a polícia apareceu
Looking for any blond haired, brown skinned children
Procuro crianças loiras e de pele morena
To round
Para arredondar
