In the early 20th century, black bluesmen often used "woman" and other feminine terms to secretly describe white men. picture a black bluesman singing about killing or beating a white man back then...he'd be strung from a tree before he finished the 2nd verse.

that said, read these lyrics again and you'll get a better idea of what blind willie was REALLY talking about.
