Shocklee - Sadler - Ridenhour



She wants a lover right now

But not no brother

Her man gotta have a lotta money

To get under her cover

Now she's a fine sister

But up here she's missin' it

She says she wanna learn about life

No old black bull shit

At the age of 15 a brother gave her a baby

She's 19 now and it drover her crazy

And now everytime

She turns around

All the people in the neighborhood

Look and get mand and sing



CHORUS



Meet Mr. Succesful

I guess he's blessed yeah

But he happens to be a brother

Who only wants blue eyes and blonde hair

Now this young mister

He don't like sisters

He couldn't find that special one

He know why he missed her

He says sisters wasn't good enuff

They only wanted his green stuff

That's why everytime he turned

Around all the people

In the neighborhood

Looked and got mad

And sang



CHORUS



I try to tell my people

There should not be any hatred

For a brother or a sister

Whose opposite race they've mated

No man is God

And God put us all here (yeah)

But this system has no wisdom

The devil split us in pairs

And taught us White is good, Black is bad

And Black and White is still too bad

That's why everytime I turn around

All the people in my neighborhood

Look mad and sing....



CHORUS
