Calling them BOYS is racist lady...

I agree. I still think Vidor is at the top. Huffman and LCM. Lumberton should finish it off. Splendora and Livingston will be battling for who’s not last

I bet there are only a handful of people that knew those words. I also looked it up, and there are those that say it is not racist. The slaves that are spoken of went over to the British side. Maybe that had something to do with the lyrics of the song. Opposite sides in a war are at risk of being killed. Still say a lot of racist ideas begin at home, black or white.
