Born Black
I am born black and I'm poor
What wrong did I do
To people on the wrong side?
I am now a laughing stock
Oh no, help me
It's not the way to live
Oh no, help me
It's not the way to live
When will I be happy?
Jesus, can you help me?
Make me happy every day
I want to live like the other people
Oh no, help me
It's not the way to live
Oh no, help me
It's not the way to live
I am born black and I'm poor
What have I seen in this world?
To people on the wrong side
I am now a laughing stock
Oh no, help me
It's not the way to live
Oh no, help me
This is not a way to live
