A child of three

Reaches out to touch

And only sees

Pretty powder puffs

Down the road

A black child plays

But the dreams

He holds lie

A cotton field away

The fires burn bright

A window breaks

Another one dies

A momma's heart aches

Behind locked doors

A white man prays

And thanks

The Lord he lives

A cotton field away

If we could see

Beyond the clouds

We both might be

On common ground

We met in school

By court's decree

I learned real soon

You were

A lot like me

Across the land

They say things

Have changed

But still we stand

A cotton field away
