We The People Who Are Darker Than Blue - Curtis Mayfield
Written by：Curtis Mayf
We people who are darker than blue
Are we gonna stand around this town
And let what others say come true
We're just good for nothing they all figure
A boyish grown up shiftless jigger
Now we can't hardly stand for that
Or is that really where it's at
We people who are darker than blue
This ain't no time for segregating
I'm talking 'bout brown and yellow two
High yellow girl can't you tell
You're just the surface of our dark deep well
If your mind could really see
You'd know your color same as me
Pardon me brother as you stand in your glory
I know you won't mind if I tell the whole story
Story
Get yourself together
Learn to know your side
Shall we commit own genocide
Before we check out our mind
I know we've all got problems
That's why I'm here to say
Keep peace with me and I with you
Let me love in my own way
Now I know we have great respect
For the sister and mother it's even better yet
But there's the joker in the street
Loving one brother and killing the other
When the time comes and we are really free
There'll be no brothers left you see
We people who are darker than blue
Don't let us hang around this town
And let what others say come true
We're just good for nothing they all figure
A grown up jigger well
Now we can't hardly stand for that
Or is that really where it's at
Pardon me brother and you stand in your glory
I know you won't mind if I tell the whole story
Pardon me brother I know we've come a long long way
But let us not be so satisfied for tomorrow
For tomorrow can be an even brighter day
