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 Is were 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 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
Ooh, ooh Yea, 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
