BLACK AMERICAN

IF YOU CAN'T MAKE IT, DON'T
FAKE IT, LET SOMEBODY ELSE TAKE
IT, CAUSE IT'S NOT THE DEPTHS OF
THE RIVER THAT DROWNS A MAN, IT'S
THE WATER. SHOW AS FAT IS GREASY,
YOU WILL GO SEE SISTER LOUWEEZY,
AND MONA LISA WAS A WOMAN.

Submitter comment: CURIOUS ABOUT SISTER LOUWEEZY, HE
INFORMED ME THAT SHE WAS A VOO-DOO
WOMAN.
