[E] I took my baby on a [A] Saturday bang
[E] Boy is that girl with you? Yes we're [A] one and the [E] same
Now [A] I believe in miracles and a miracle has happened to[E] night
But, [B] if you're thinkin' about my baby
It don't [A] matter if you're black or [E] white
[E] They print my message in the [A] Saturday Sun
[E] I had to tell them I ain't [A] second to [E] none
And I [A] told about equality and it's true
Either you're wrong or you're [E] right
But, [B] if you're thinkin' about my baby
It don't [A] matter if you're black or [E] white
[E] I am tired of this devil I am tired of this stuff
[E] I am tired of this business Sew when the going gets rough
[E] I ain't scared of your brother I ain't scared of no sheets
[E] I ain't scared of nobody Girl, when the going gets mean
[E] Protection for gangs, clubs, and nations
[E] Causing grief in human relations It's a turf war on a global scale
[E] I'd rather hear both sides of the tale
See, [E] it's not about races Just places, faces where your blood comes from
Is were your [E] space is I've seen the bright get duller
I'm [E] not going to spend my life being a color
Don't [A] tell me you agree with me
When I saw you kicking dirt in my [E] eye [A] [E]
But, if you're [B] thinkin' about my baby
It don't [E] matter if you're black or [E] white
I said if you're [B] thinkin' about my baby
It don't [E] matter if you're black or [E] white
I said if you're [B] thinkin' about my baby
It don't [E] matter if you're black or [E] white
It's [E] black, it's white
It's [A] tough for you to get by (yeah, yeah, yeah)
It's [E] black, it's [A] white
It's [E] black, it's white
It's [A] tough for you to get by (yeah, yeah, yeah)
It's [E] black, it's [A] white
