Lyrics : Colored People (Live)

Ley-oo yeah
There is joy in diversity
Sha nana o-oh, yeah
One (One, one, one)
Two (Two, two, two)
Three (Three, three, three)
Four (Four, four, four)

Pardon me, your epidermis is showing, miss
I couldn't help but note your shade of melanin
I tip my hat to the colorful arrangement
'Cause I see the beauty in the tones of our skin

We've gotta come together (Come together)
And thank the Maker of us all

We're colored people and we live in a tainted place (Colored people)
We're colored people and they call us the human race (Colored people)
We've got a history so full of mistakes (Colored people)
And we are colored people who depend on a holy grace

Hoo, yeah, a-ah oh
Red and yellow, black and white
All are precious in His sight
