Oh, I like this performance. I once featured it on my blog. I like when she speaks of hearing the black man repeat that he's had it hard....then she sings, 'well I have to.'
Obama Mama, A black struggling mama
That supports Barak Obama,
Not a traditonal voter
but her male image stands before her
A good man,
A just man,
A strong man,
and she had to change her plans
had to get on a ball
and get involved
so that maybe she could have something,
so that now her kids can be something,
something she never had a chance to be
so now that her plans can be
tangible,
achievable,
believable,
she knows its time for a change
and she feels Barak Obama
Can do the damn thang. Go Barak !
