Ballad of a Black President

C                            G

Oh, mama, he killed Osama 


C                                                         G

shot him in head, sent him straight to the bottom 


C                                                                  G

from Abbotabad to Crawford, this is what you wanted 


Em                                                        G

So why won't you all say Barack Obama got him?

C                                                           G

There’s a black man in the White House, food stamps feeding my mouth

Em                                                  G

The taste of terror dripping from my lips

C                                                              G

I’m hungering for nothing, I’m savoring something

C                                                      G

I was born here, here’s my birth certificate

C                           G

Oh, mama, he killed Osama 


C                                                        G

shot him in head, sent him straight to the bottom 


C                                                                    G

from Abbotabad to Crawford, this is what you wanted 


Em                                                         G

So why won't you all say Barack Obama got him?

C                                                             G

Sit and watch the live death on streaming video

Em                                                   G

Geronimo’s the code word for take no prisoners

C                                                                         G

When the mission is accomplished the doubting will begin

C                                                                              G

Without a body you can’t prove what Bush and Cheney did

C                                 G

Oh, mama, he killed Osama 


C                                                            G

shot him in head, sent him straight to the bottom 


C                                                                       G

from Abbotabad to Crawford, this is what you wanted 


Em                                                               G
