HELP PLEASE from The Black Man’s Plea for Justice
by Ephraim David Tyler
Hear me, statesman,
I am pleading to defend
The black man’s cause.
Will you give me the protection
to outline your laws?
Will your lawyers plead my cases
in your courts?
Am I not a citizen?
I pay dear for transportation
over all your railroad track.
I come up to every requirement
and I will always pay my tax.
And when I don’t fill in blanks correctly,
will you kindly teach me how?
Ruling power of this nation,
will you give me justice now?
I prepared your wedding supper
and I dug your father’s grave.
I did everything you asked me
just because I was your slave.
I helped build your great bridges
and I laid your railroad steel.
Oh, I been a mighty power
in your great financial wheel.
And when I don’t do jobs correctly
will you kindly teach me how?
Ruling power of this nation
will you give me justice now?
