[00:00:18] Come to my door baby

[00:00:22] Face is clean and shining black as night

[00:00:27] My mother went to answer

[00:00:29] You know that you looked so fine

[00:00:34] Now I could understand your tears and your shame

[00:00:40] She called you 'Boy' instead of your name

[00:00:45] When she wouldn't let you inside

[00:00:49] When she turned and said "But honey he's not our kind"

[00:00:57] She says I can't see you any more baby

[00:01:04] Can't see you anymore

[00:01:09] Walk me down to school baby

[00:01:14] Everybody's acting deaf and blind

[00:01:18] Until they turn and say

[00:01:20] Why don't you stick to your own kind

[00:01:26] My teachers all laugh they smirk and stare

[00:01:32] Cuttin' deep down in our affair

[00:01:37] Preachers of equality think they believe it

[00:01:42] Then why won't they just let us be

[00:01:48] They say I can't see you anymore baby

[00:01:56] Can't see you anymore

[00:02:01] One of these days I'm gonna stop my listenin'

[00:02:05] Gonna raise my head up high

[00:02:10] One of these days I'm gonna raise my glistenin'

[00:02:14] Wings and fly

[00:02:20] But that day will have to wait for awhile

[00:02:24] Baby I'm only a society's child

[00:02:29] When we're older things may change

[00:02:33] But for now this is the way they must remain

[00:02:41] I say I can't see you any more baby

[00:02:48] Can't see you anymore

[00:02:52] No I don't wanna see you any more baby
