Black Or White

I took my baby
On a Saturday bang
Boy is that girl with you
Yes we're one and the same
Now I believe in miracles
And a miracle
Has happened tonight
But
If you're thinkin'
About my baby
It don't matter if you're
Black or white
They print my message
In the Saturday Sun
I had tell them
I ain't second to none
And I told about equality
And it's true
Either you're wrong
Or you're right
But
If you're thinkin'
About my baby
It don't matter if you're
Black or white
I am tired of this devil
I am tired of this devil
I am tired of this stuff
I am tired of this business
Sew when the
Going gets rough
I ain't scared of your brother
I ain't scared of no sheets
I ain's scared of nobody
Girl when the goin' gets mean
Rap:
Protection
For gangs, clubs, and nations
Causing grief in human relations
It's a turf war
On a global scale
I'd rather hear both sides of the tale
See, it's not about races
Just places, faces
Where your blood comes from
Is where your space is
I've seen the bright get duller
I'm not going to spend
My life being a color
Don't tell me you agree with me
When I saw you
Kickin' dirt in my eye
But
You're thinkin'about my baby
It don't matter if you're
Black or white
I said
If you're thinkin' about my baby
It don't matter if you're
Black or white
I said
If you're thinkin' of being my brother
It don't matter if you're
Black or white
Ooh, ooh
Yeah, yea, yea now
Ooh, ooh
Yea, yea, yea now
It's black, it's white
It's tough for them
To get by
It's black, it's white, whoo
(Repeat)
