Black or White

(Hey) what?

(Turn it off) dad, this is the best part

(Turn it off) no

(It's too late for this, turn it off)

Dad, this is the best part, come on

(No, turn it off now) no, this is the-, I wanna listen to it, okay?

('Cause it's too loud and disturbs the neighbors, turn it off now)

Yeah, right, too late? Sure, eat this

Ow!

Ow!

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, hee

But if you're thinkin' about my baby

It don't matter if you're black or white, ooh

They print my message in the Saturday sun

I had to tell 'em, "I ain't second to none"

And I told about equality

And it's true, either you're wrong or you're right, hoo

But if you're thinkin' about my baby

It don't matter if you're black or white, hoo

Gone wit' ya, babe

Hee-hee

I am tired of this devil

I am tired of this stuff

I am tired of this business

Go when the goin' gets rough

I ain't scared of your brother

I ain't scared of no sheets

I ain't scared of nobody

Go 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, it's where your space is

I've seen the bright get duller

I'm not gonna spend my life being a color

Don't tell me you agree with me

When I saw you kickin' dirt in my eye (hee-hee)

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

Alright, alright (ooh-ooh)

Alright (yeah, yeah, yeah), yeah, now

Alright, alright (ooh-ooh)

Shamone, don't (yeah, yeah, yeah)

Yeah, now, alright, ah

It's black, it's white

It's tough for you to beat, yeah (yeah, yeah, yeah)

It's black, it's white, hoo (it's white, ooh-ooh)

It's black, it's white

It's tough for you to beat, yeah (yeah, yeah, yeah)

It's black, it's white, hoo
