Toni Morrison - Song of Solomon (Children's Song) lyrics

Jake the only son of Solomon Come b**ba yalle, come b**ba tambee Whirled about and touched the sun Come konka yalle, come konka tambee Left that baby in a white man's house Come b**ba yalle, come b**ba tambee Heddy took him to a red man's house Come konka yalle, come konka tambee Black lady fell down on the ground Come b**ba yalle, come b**ba tambee Threw her body all around Come konka yalle, come konka tambee Solomon and Ryna, Belali, Shalut Yaruba, Medina, Muhammet, too Nestor, Kalina, Saraka cake Twenty-one children, the last one Jake! O Solomon don't leave me here Cotton balls to choke me O Solomon don't leave me here Buckra's arms to yoke me Solomon done fly, Solomon done gone Solomon cut across the sky, Solomon gone home
