"you ain't nothing but the Jew's child,"
Usually "I ain't nothing but a 'poor' Jew's child.
Can't see anything wrong with this - I understand Jews have children and many of them are poor.
It's when they are used as derogatory stereotypes that the problems arise - like when it is implied that they are all rich.
