We People Who Are Darker than Blue (Album Version) - Curtis Mayfield[00:00:01]
We people who are darker than blue[00:00:07]
Don't let us stand around this town[00:00:14]
And let what others say come true[00:00:18]
We're just good for nothing[00:00:22]
They all figure[00:00:25]
A boyish grown up shiftless jigger[00:00:27]
Now we can't hardly stand for that[00:00:32]
Or is that really where it's at[00:00:36]
We people who are darker than blue[00:00:40]
They got no time for segregating[00:00:47]
I'm talking `bout brown and yellow too[00:00:51]
High yellow gal can't you tell[00:00:55]
I'm just the surface of our[00:00:59]
Dark deep well[00:01:02]
If your mind could really see[00:01:04]
You'd know your color same as me[00:01:08]
Pardon me brother[00:01:11]
As you stand in your glory[00:01:16]
I know you won't mind[00:01:21]
If I tell the whole story[00:01:25]
Now I know[00:03:15]
We have great respect[00:03:17]
For the sister and the mother[00:03:20]
It's even better yet[00:03:25]
But there's the joker in the street[00:03:29]
Loving one brother and[00:03:34]
Killing the other[00:03:36]
When the time comes and[00:03:37]
We are really free[00:03:41]
There'll be no brothers left you see[00:03:43]
We people who are darker than blue[00:03:48]
Don't let us hang around this town[00:03:53]
And let what others say come true[00:03:58]
We're just good for nothing[00:04:03]
They all figure[00:04:05]
A boyish grown up shiftless jigger[00:04:07]
Now we can't hardly stand for that[00:04:09]
Or is that really where it's at[00:04:16]
Pardon me brother[00:04:21]
As you stand in your glory[00:04:24]
I know you won't mind[00:04:28]
Now I know[00:04:31]
We have great respect[00:04:36]
For the sister and the mother[00:04:38]
It's even better yetIf I tell the whole story[00:04:41]
