Black Like Me |
| Little kid in a small town |
| I did my best just to fit in |
| Broke my heart on the playground, mm |
| When they said I was different |
| Oh, now |
| Now, I’m all grown up and nothin' has changed |
| Yeah, it’s still the same |
| It’s a hard life on easy street |
| Just white painted picket fences far as you can see |
| If you think we live in the land of the free |
| You should try to be black like me |
| My daddy worked day and night |
| For an old house and a used car |
| Just to live that good life, mm |
| It shouldn’t be twice as hard |
| Oh, now |
| Now, I’m all grown up and nothin' has changed |
| Yeah, it’s still the same |
| It’s a hard life on easy street |
| Just white painted picket fences far as you can see |
| If you think we live in the land of the free |
| You should try to be, oh, black like me |
| Oh-oh-oh-oh |
| Oh, I know |
| I’m not |
| The only one |
| Oh, yeah |
| Who feels |
| Like I |
| I don’t belong |
| It’s a hard life on easy street |
| Just white painted picket fences far as you can see |
| And if you think we live in the land of the free |
| You should try to be, oh, black like me |
| Oh, and some day we’ll all be free |
| And I’m proud to be, oh, black like me |
| And I’m proud to be black like me |
| I’m proud to be black like me |
| Black like me |
