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

An 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

I ain't scared of no sheets

I ain't scared of nobody

Goin' gets mean

Protection

For gangs, clubs,

And nations

Causing grief in

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

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

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
