Correction Paroles Black & White par Janis Ian

Paroles

We were marching from Montgomery
Alabama, '65
Freedom riders, Jim Crow heroes
Come to keep the faith alive
We were picking Southern cotton
Registration for the vote
We were one then
We were young then
When black and white still spoke

Now it's all gone to pieces
God alone knows why
Just a story they call history
Written down in black and white

And we set aside our anger
And we set asidе our fears
And we built a common future
On thе bedrock of our tears
And we marched for the children
And the millions without hope
We agreed to believe
When black and white still spoke
Now it's all gone to pieces
God alone knows why
Just a story they call history
Written down in black and white

Nothing's sadder than the man who
Thinks he's free when he is chained
To the prison of his hatred
And a dream gone up in flame

Colored only at the fountains
Congregations, soda shops
Colored only in the bathrooms
And the cemetery lots
And if Jesus was a black man
Or as white as Sambo's grin
Well it's his words that we remember
Not the color of his skin

But it's all gone to pieces
God alone knows why
Just a story they call history
Written down in black and white
Written down in black and white
Written down in black and white
