Black and White Songtext
von La Bionda

Even though the streets are dirty
And even though I′m scared of the man
Gonna stay here in the heart of the city
I'm gonna make it to the top if I can

Now I′m living in a ton of trouble
My woman's going out of her mind
Ain't we happy in your house on Main Street
And ain′t ya glad you′re not the struggling kind

Why don't you

Take me to the leader of society′s band
We're all dancing to the devil′s tune
Yeah, brother blow your trumpet just as hard as you can
Down below they still got plenty of room

Well, don't you know we′re dressed in black and white
But everything will be all right
Because the colour of a naked man
Is the colour in Heaven's plan


Oh Lord, forgive me if I got it wrong

See you in the church on Sunday
And afterwards the preacher shakes hands
Gonna keep the word of God in my memory
I'm gonna raise a forest out of the sand, oh yeah

Just

Take me to the leader of society′s band
We′re all dancing to the devil's tune
Yeah, brother blow your trumpet just as hard as you can
Down below they still got plenty of room

Well, don′t you know we're dressed in black and white
But everything will be all right
Because the colour of a naked man
Is the colour in Heaven′s plan

You got to pray to the Lord when the night is long
And somewhere He will find you a friend
And if the God-given love of a friend is strong
He's the colour of Heaven′s plan


Oh Lord, forgive me if I got it wrong
