Titel: BLACK AND WHITE
Interpret: GREY HOUND
---------------------------------------------------------------------
The ink is black, the page is white
together we learn to read and write
to read and write.
And now a child can understand
this is the law of all the land,
all the land !
The ink is black, the page is white
together we learn to read and write
to read and write.
The slate is black, the chalk is white,
the words stand out so clear and bright,
so clear and bright.
And now at last we plainly see
the alphabet of liberty, liberty !
The slate is black, the chalk is white,
the words stand out so clear and bright,
A child is black, a child is white
the whole world looks upon the sight,
a beautiful sight.
for very well the whole world knows
this is the way that freedom grows,
freedom grows !
A child is black, a child is white
the whole world looks upon the sight,
a beautiful sight.
The world is black, the world is white,
it turns by day and then by night,
it turns by night.
It turns so each and ev'ryone
can take his station in the sun, in the sun !
The world is black, the world is white,
it turns by day and then by night,
it turns by night.
Their robes were black, their heads were white,
the school-house doors were closed so tight,
were closed up tight, nine judges all set down their names,
to end the years and years of shame, years of shame.
Their robes were black, their heads were white,
the school-house doors were closed so tight,
were closed up tight.
