Lyrics to “White Man”:
Hey WHITE MAN, I am not my grandmother
I’m from the city Canton, Ohio
I’m just a lady and I think like a man
You’re hatin’ me and I don’t understand
You’re judgin’ me, you wanna send me to hell
God is my father and I’ve got my bail
You come for me, let me make it clear
I’ll whip your Woo-oo-oo
Hey WHITE MAN, you can best believe I matter
And I’m offended by your chatter-chatter
But I’m livin’ good on the edge of myself
I make a drink and I’ll toast to myself
Let’s come together, let’s make it better
Let’s come together, let’s make it better
If you don’t agree, I’ll make it clear
I’ll whip your Woo-oo-oo
