Black Man |
First man to die |
For the flag we now hold high |
Was a black man |
The ground where we stand |
With the flag held in our hand |
Was first the red man’s |
Guide of a ship |
On the first Columbus trip |
Was a brown man |
The railroads for trains |
Came on tracking that was laid |
By the yellow man |
We pledge allegiance all our lives |
To the magic colors, red, blue and white |
But we all must be given |
The liberty that we defend |
For with justice not for all men |
History will repeat again |
It’s time we learned |
This world was made for all men |
Heart surgery |
Was first done successfully |
By a black man |
Friendly man who died |
But helped the pilgrims to survive |
Was a red man |
Farm workers rights |
Were lifted to new heights |
By a brown man |
Incandescent light |
Was invented to give sight |
By the white man |
We pledge allegiance all our lives |
To the magic colors, red, blue and white |
But we all must be given |
The liberty that we defend |
For with justice not for all men |
History will repeat again |
It’s time we learned |
This world was made for all men |
Here me out |
Oh, now I know the birthday of a nation |
Is a time when a country celebrates |
But as your hand touches your heart |
Remember we all played a part in America |
To help that banner wave |
First clock to be made |
In America was created |
By a black man |
Scout who used no chart |
Helped lead Lewis and Clark |
Was |
Use of martial arts |
In our country got its start |
By a yellow man |
And the leader with a pen |
Signed his name to free all men |
Was a white man |
We pledge allegiance all our lives |
To the magic colors, red, blue and white |
But we all must be given |
The liberty that we defend |
For with justice not for all men |
History will repeat again |
It’s time we learned |
This world was made for all men |
World was made for all men |
This world was made for all men |
World was made for all men |
God saved His world, all men |
All people, all babies |
All children, all colors, all races |
This world’s for you and me |
This world, my world |
Your world, everybody’s world |
This world, their world |
Our world, this world was made for all men |
