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

they print my message in the saturday sun

i had to tell them i ain't secound 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

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 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

kicking dirt in my eye

but if you're thinkin' about my baby

i said if you're thinkin' of being my baby

i said if you're thinkin' of being my baby

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

it's black it's white

it's tough for them to get by

it's black it's white whoo
