Well-Intentioned Blues

I wish I was a Negro
 With lots of Negro soul
 So I could stay true to my ethnic roots
 And still play Rock N' Roll
 If I was a Funky Negro
 Eatin' soul food barbeques
 I wouldn't have to sing the Middle-Class Liberal
 Well-Intentioned Blues
 Intentioned Blues
 Intentioned Blues
 I wish I was an Indian
 A grown-up Sioux Papoose
 So whn'I get drunk on a beer and a half
 I have a good excuse
 I'd be a noble savage
 Wouldn't ever wear no shoes
 An' I wouldn't have to sing the Middle-Class-Liberal
 Well-Intentioned Blues

 Intentioned Blues
 (Middle-Class-Liberal Banjo Solo)
 I wish I was a wetback
 On a strike in a lettuce patch
 Or a slant-eyed peasant with Vietcong
 Stashed underneath my thatch
 I only ever cross a picket line
 To pay my union dues
 To keep on singing the Middle-Class Liberal
 Well-Intentioned Blues
 Intentioned Blues
 Intentioned Blues
 But I am not a Negro (Come on)
 Not a Redman nor a Mex (Join me kids)
 I'm a member of the oppressing color
 language, age, and sex
 I sympathize with the Arab cause
 I feel for the put-upon Jews
 And I keep singing
 The Middle-Class Liberal
 Humanitarian
 Meaningful Dialogue
 We are all responsible
