Black and White

The ink is black

The page is white

Together we learn to read and write

The child is black

The child is white

The whole world looks upon the sight

The beautiful sight

And now a child can understand

That this is the law of all the land

All the land

The world is black

The world is white

It turns by day and then by night

The child is black

The child is white

Together they grow to see the light

To see the light

And now at last we plainly see

We'll have a dance of liberty... liberty

The world is black

The world is white

It turns by day and then by night

The child is black

The child is white

The whole world looks upon the sight

The beautiful sight

The world is black

The world is white

It turns by day and the by night

The child I'd black

The child is white

Together they grow to see the light

To see the light
