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 So when the going gets rough…I ain’t scared of your brother I ain’t scared of no sheets I ain’t scare 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 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 Yeah, yeah, yeah, now Ooh, ooh Yeah, yeah, yeah, now…It’s black, it’s white It’s tough for you to get by It’s black, it’s white, woo…
