Lyrics

My skin is black
My arms are long
My hair is woolly
My back is strong
Strong enough to take the pain Inflicted again and again
What do they call me? My name is AUNT SARAH My name is Aunt Sarah
My skin is yellow My hair is long Between two worlds I do belong
My father was rich and white
He forced my mother late one night What do they call me?
My name is SAFFRONIA
My name is Saffronia
My skin is tan
My hair is fine
My hips invite you
My mouth like wine
Whose little girl am I?
Anyone who has money to buy What do they call me?
My name is SWEET THING
Sweet Thing
My skin is brown
My manner is tough
I'll kill the first mother I see
My life has been too rough
I'm awfully bitter these days
Because my parents were slaves What do they call me?
My name is PEACHES
My name is PEACHES
PEACHES
