Black Or White

Black Or White - Michael Jackson

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

this places

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

It s black, it s white

It s tough for them to get by

It s black, it s white, whoo
