Description

A folk song--written in the 1970s--indicating how a political alliance of economically insecure, poor whites in the USA and Black working-class people in the USA can finally liberate us all from our common class exploitation and class oppression.

Lyrics

(chorus)
Poor whites
Poor whites
Poor whites
Our hearts are sad
Poor whites
and poor blacks
United can rule this land.

(verses)
Poor whites
Our day will come
United with black ones
Poor whites
It's time to fight
Against a class that's white. (chorus)

Poor whites
We have no money
Poor whites
We have no jobs
Poor whites
We have no homes
Poor whites
Our day will come. (chorus)

Poor whites
Arise
And march
To seize the banks
Poor whites
By your side
You'll find
A strong Black hand. (chorus)
