Then said th' yo'ng African Negro Native

We prefa' dem t'de Negro tyrannorum
We wuz like honkyfools t'be so's contentious
Wid albimo sucka's who is baaaad at guv'ment
Our principes dough dey be brother negrum likes us,
By dem is we deceived and robbed even killed;
Dey is snobs infectus per pompous greediness
