Lyrics Beautiful Black Girl - Quincy Jones, The Watts Prophets

Beautiful Black Girl

Hey beautiful African girl
I got something I want to say to you
Girl, I love you
I love you
I love you beautiful Black girl and I need you so bad
Friends tell me I should seek only the solution to the Revolution
But my life is staging its own Revolution trying free itself of the chains of
loneliness
And my heart is begging for a chance
Knocking on the door romance
I’m a poet, but poets need love too
I do
I need a beautiful Black sister just like you
Who is so aware
So let me show you that I care
And touch your warm ebony skin
Be your life time friend
Guide my fingers through your natural hair
And give you a love beyond compare
Because shucks girl I love you
I mean I really really really love you
Hey beautiful Black girl
I love you
More than I love you I need you
I need your love beautiful Black girl
Love love to me you’re the living end
I would scream and yell
And go through hell
Just to be your enemy’s friend
Just to know someone who knows of you
Hear me well
Hear me well
Hear me well can’t you tell Black girl I love you
I mean more than a bee loves honey
More than a miser loves money
More than a junkie loves stuff
More than Grandma loves snuff and she loves the stuff
But more than all of these
More than all of these
More than all of these I love you
And I mean it from the basement of my heart
To the balcony of my mind
Because beautiful Black girl I love you
And I have dreams and visions of you all the time
Because I need you too and I love you so much
For your love
For your love
For your love
For your love there is nothing I wouldn’t do
Against myself
I said against myself
I would gladly fight just to keep from hurting you
Black Queen
Black Queen
Black Queen
I mean you’re my dream
My self control
My heart and soul
My lifelong goal
My stomach quake and my mind is blown
Each time I imagine I’m with you alone
Listen closely love
Listen closely love
Listen closely love
Can’t you hear my heart sounding and pounding and
Sounding and pounding and
Sounding and pounding
Listen love
Listen love
Listen love
Listen love to my dream as they scream to hold you close
And give you and overdose of love beautiful Black girl
For love love please please tell me you’ll be mine
My love don’t say no there’s a tear in my eye
Hey girl hey girl love don’t say no you gonna make me cry
Love don’t love don’t don’t don’t leave me like this
Just on little kiss
Because you’re so fine and you’re so smart
Black girl woman
Queen of the Universe
Love if you want to
Woman if you wanted to
Queen if you wanted to
Love if you wanted to
If you wanted to love
If you wanted to love
If you wanted to
You could catch GOD
