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 to 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 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't scared
of nobody
Girl when the
goin'gets mean
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
This places
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 kicking
dirt in my eye
But 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 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
It's black
it's white
It's tough
for them
to get by
It's black
it's white
It's tough
for you to be bad
It's black
it's white
It's tough
for them
to get by
It's black
it's white
