I too sing America by Miltm59 Lyrics
I too, sing America by Langston Hughes
I too, sing America
I am the darker brother
They send me to eat in the kitchen
when company comes
but I laugh
and eat well
and grow strong
tomorrow
Ill be at the table
when nobody comes
Nobody'll dare
say to me
"eat in the kitchen"
then
Besides
they'll see how beautiful I am
and be ashamed
I too am American
I too, sing America
I am the darker brother
They send me to eat in the kitchen
when company comes
but I laugh
and eat well
and grow strong
tomorrow
Ill be at the table
when nobody comes
Nobody'll dare
say to me
"eat in the kitchen"
then
Besides
they'll see how beautiful I am
and be ashamed
I too am American
