Black Jack
Was a fighting man
Black Jack
Was a mighty man
You stand them up
He knock them out
Yeah Yeah
That's the real
You stand them up
He knock them down
Yeah yeah
That's the deal
Now sing them high
Hey-hey-hey-hey
Up in the sky
Whoa oh woah
Break it down low
Whoa whoa
Break it off slow
Whoa whoa
Then shout it out
Yeah Yeah Yeah yeah

Holding bread in hand
Go head work that bag
Go head work it say

Wear those pretty clothes
Drive them pretty cars

You a super star
You a super man
Go head fly yo cape
Blowing in the wind
Let it touch the hand
Stand and fight and win
Snatch the crown again
Wit' yo mighty swing
And yo flashy smile
Let them see the light
You so black and bright
You so bright you black
Shining you crying to fight them back
[Guitar Solo]
Yeah Yeah Yeah Yeah [repeat]
