Three Dog Night - Black And White Lyrics
- words by David Arkin, music by Earl Robinson, © 1956The ink is black, the page is whiteTogether we learn to read and writeA child is black, a child is whiteThe whole world looks upon the sight, a beautiful sightAnd now a child can understandThat this is the law of all the land, all the landThe world is black, the world is whiteIt turns by day and then by nightA child is black, a child is whiteTogether they grow to see the light, to see the lightAnd now at last we plainly seeWe'll have a dance of Liberty, Liberty!The world is black, the world is whiteIt turns by day and then by nightA child is black, a child is whiteThe whole world looks upon the sight, a beautiful sightThe world is black, the world is whiteIt turns by day and then by nightA child is black, a child is whiteTogether they grow to see the light, to see the lightThe world is black, the world is whiteIt turns by day and then by nightA child is black, a child is whiteThe whole world looks upon the sight, a beautiful sightThe world is black, the world is whiteIt turns by day and then by nightA child is black, a child is whiteTogether they grow to see the light, to see the lightC'mon, get it, get itOhh-ohhhh, yeah, yeahKeep it up now, around the worldLittle boys and little girlsYeah, yeah-eah, oh-ohhh
