Mine: "Half Caste" - Thin Lizzy
...Though I´ve been more than a die-hard fan for Lizzy for most of the time since 1976, I hadnt heard this before. Its in the box set Vagabonds Kings Warriors Angels, at the Kings cd.
Funky funky tune... B-side to the more known Rosalie (1974).Yeah, you can see the boy´s (=was) no collector... Btw at this time Brian Downey [
www.briandowneyondrums.com] was no better than Charlie then
playing backbeat. Guess Charlie is way ahead now.
"I got a girl in Briggston town
Her daddy don't like me hangin' 'round
The boy ain't black, the boy is brown
Don't he know it's a halfcaste town
Big slow...
'The boy is halfcaste' /'Halfcaste'/'Halfcaste'
I got a girl up near Richmond way
Her daddy don't like me to lead the girl astray
The brown boy is born to serve he say
Don't he know it's a different day
In the big slow/No joke/Big slow
I like it/Big slow/Big slow
Mister, I'm halfcaste... You see, I'm halfcaste
I got no class... You see, I'm halfcaste... Halfcaste."
