the bourgeois blues

me and my wife went all over town

and everywhere we went people turned us down

lord

in a bourgeois town

it's a bourgeois town

i got the bourgeois blues

gonna spread the news all around

home of the brave

land of the free

i don't wanna be mistreated by no bourgeoisie

lord

in a bourgeois town

uhm

the bourgeois town

i got the bourgeois blues

gonna spread the news all around

well

me and my wife we were standing upstairs

we heard the white man say i don't want no niggers up there"
