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)
