Got a sweet black angel, Up upon my wall. Well, she ain´t no singer And she ain´t no star, But she sure talk good, And she move so fast. But the gal in danger, Yeah, de gal in chains, But she keep on pushin´, Would ya take her place? She countin´ up de minutes, She countin´ up de days, She´s a sweet black angel, woh, Not a sweet black slave. Ten little niggers Sittin´ on de wall, Her brothers been a fallin´, Fallin´ one by one.
For a judge they murdered And a judge they stole, Now de judge he gonna judge her For all dat he´s worth. Well de gal in danger, De gal in chains, But she keep on pushin´ Would you do the same? She countin´ up de minutes, She countin´ up de days, She´s a sweet black angel, Not a gun toting teacher, Not a Red lovin´ school mom, Ain´t someone gonna free her, Free de sweet black slave, Free de sweet black slave.
