I'm not intentionally trolling at all... I'm asking a legit question...

Near as I can suss it, a 'spade' in that context is a black dude, and how is that any better/worse than singing 'nigger'???

I think it's a pretty good song, and I'd add it to my set list in a heart beat, but this line gave me a moments pause...

So I'm curious as to others opinions...
