Zorro,
I think these are pretty close. There are a couple of words I am guessing at. Feel free to change as you see fit.

ELEGY (PLAIN BLACK BOY) Words, Gwendolyn Brooks. Music, Oscar Brown, Jr.

He was born in Alabama, bred in Illinois
He was nothin' but a plain black boy
Swing Low, sweet chariot
Nothin' but a plain black boy

Drive him past the pool hall
Drive him past the show
Blind within his casket
But maybe he will know
Down through 47th Street
And underneath the L
Northwest corner of Prairie
That he loved so well
Swing Low, sweet, sweet chariot
Nothin' but a poor black boy

Intrum. - piano
Don't forget the dance halls
The Whirlwind and Savoy
Where he picked his women
And drank his liquid joy
Born in Alabama, bred in Illinois
He was nothin' but a poor black boy
Swing Low, sweet, sweet chariot
Nothin' but a poor black boy
(slower)Swing Low, sweet, sweet chariot
Nothin' but a poor black boy
