Black Man 歌詞
Black Man - Stevie Wonder
Composed by:Stevie Wonder
First man to die
For the flag we now hold high
Was a black man
The ground where we stand
With a flag held in our hand
Was first the red man's
Guide of a ship
On the first Columbus trip
Was a brown man
The railroads for trains
Came on tracking that was laid
By the yellow man
We pledge allegiance
All our lives
To the magic colors
Red blue and white
But we all must be given
The liberty that we defend
For with justice not for all men
History will repeat again
It's time we learned
This world was made for all men
Heart surgery
Was first done successfully
By a black man
Friendly men who died
But helped the pilgrims to survive
Was a red man
Farm workers' rights
Were lifted to new heights
By a brown man
Incandescent light
Was invented to give sight
By the white man
We pledge allegiance
All our lives
To the magic colors
Red blue and white
But we all must be given
The liberty that we defend
For with justice not for all men
History will repeat again
It's time we learned
This world was made for all men
Hear me out
Oh now I know the birthday of a nation
Is a time when a country celebrates
But as your hand touches your heart
Remember we all played a part
In America to help that banner wave
First clock to be made
In America was created
By a black man
Scout who used no chart
Who helped lead Lewis and Clark
Was a red woman
Use of martial arts
In our country got its start
By a yellow man
And the leader with a pen
Signed his name to free all men
Was a white man
We pledge allegiance
All our lives
And the magic colors
Red blue and white
But we all must be given
The liberty that we defend
For with justice not for all men
History will repeat again
It's time we learned
This world was made for all men
The world was made for all men
This world was made for all men
Was made for all men
God saved this world for all men
All peoples
All babies
All children
All colors
All races
This world's for you
And me
This world
My world
Your world
Everybody's world
This world
Their world
Our world this world was made for all men
