Yellow Man lyrics

Very far away in a foreign land
Lives the yellow woman and the yellow man
He's been around for many-a-year
They say they were there before we were here
Eatin' rice all day while the children play
You see, he believes in the family just like you and me

Oh, yellow man, oh, yellow man
We understand, you know we understand
Ata, ata, ata, ta, ta, ta
Ata, ata, ata, ta, ta, ta
Ata, ata, ata, ta, ta, ta
He keeps his money tight in his hand
With his yellow woman he's a yellow man
Got to have a yellow woman
When you're a yellow man
