From the color of the faces in Sunday songs

To the hatred they raised all the youngsters on

Once upon in this country long ago

She knew there was something wrong

Because the song said "Yellow, Red, Black, and White"

Everyone precious in the path of Christ

But what about the daughter of the woman cleaning their house?

Wasn't she a child they were singing about?

And if Jesus loves us, black and white skin

Why didn't her white mother invite them in?

When did it become a room for no blacks to step in?

How did she already know not the ask the question?

Left lasting impressions, adolescence comforts gone

She never thought things would ever change but

She always knew there was something wrong

She always knew there was something wrong

She always knew there was something wrong

Years
