Man In Black - Various[00:00:00]

Well you wonder why I always dress in black[00:00:06]

Why you never see bright colors on my back[00:00:11]

And why does my appearance seem to have a somber tone[00:00:16]

Well there's a reason for the things that I have on[00:00:22]

I wear the black for the poor and the beaten down[00:00:27]

Livin' in the hopeless hungry side of town[00:00:32]

I wear it for the prisoner who is long paid for his crime[00:00:37]

But is there because he's a victim of the times[00:00:42]

I wear the black for those who've never read[00:00:47]

Or listened to the words that Jesus said[00:00:52]

About the road to happiness through love and charity[00:00:57]

Why you'd think He's talking straight to you and me[00:01:02]

Well we're doin' mighty fine I do suppose[00:01:07]

In our streak of lightnin' cars and fancy clothes[00:01:12]

But just so we're reminded of the ones who are held back[00:01:17]

Up front there ought to be a Man In Black[00:01:22]

I wear it for the sick and lonely old[00:01:27]

For the reckless ones whose bad trip left them cold[00:01:32]

I wear the black in mournin' for the lives that could have been[00:01:37]

Each week we lose a hundred fine young men[00:01:42]

And I wear it for the thousands who have died[00:01:47]

Believin' that the Lord was on their side[00:01:52]

I wear it for another hundred thousand who have died[00:01:57]

Believin' that we all were on their side[00:02:02]

Well there's things that never will be right I know[00:02:07]

And things need changin' everywhere you go[00:02:12]

But 'til we start to make a move to make a few things right[00:02:17]

You'll never see me wear a suit of white[00:02:22]

Ah I'd love to wear a rainbow every day[00:02:27]

And tell the world that everything's okay[00:02:32]

But I'll try to carry off a little darkness on my back[00:02:37]

Till things are brighter I'm the Man In Black[00:02:42]
