Different Colours / One People Songtext

Different Colours / One People Songtext
Breaking those barriers
All over the world
Was not an easy thing
Yesterday your mouth was shut, yeah
Couldn′ t make a sound, eh boy
But it's such a good feeling today
When I can hear them from
Across the ocean singing this song
That the whole world should be singing
All the time
We′re different colors
(One people)
Different colors
(One people)
Different colors
(One people)
Different colors
(One people)
They got different colors
(One people)
Different colors
Hey you government
Never try to seperate the people
Hey you politician
Never try to separate the people, hey
They were created in the image of God
And who are you to separate them
Bible says, he made man in his image
But it didn't say black or white
Look at me you see black
I look at you I see white
Now is the time to kick that away
And join me in my song
Different colors
(One people)
(Different colors)
One people
Different colors
(Nice people, different colors)
One people, different colors
(One people, different colors)
Hey you politician
Never separate the people here
Hey you man hey you man
Never try to separate the people, oy
Some were from America
We were from South Africa
Some were from Japan, yeah
We were from China
Some were from Australia
We were from the U.K.
Some were from Zimbabwe
We were from Ghana
Some were from Jamaica
We were from Russia
Some were from Aha-ha-ha
We were from Uhu-hu-hu (sing me a song)
Different colors
(One people, different colors)
(One people, different colors)
(Yeah) (Nice people, different colors)
(One people) (We are nice people)
(Different colors, one people) (yeah)
(Different colors, nice people)
(Nice people, ooh)
All over the world
Was not an easy thing
Yesterday your mouth was shut, yeah
Couldn′ t make a sound, eh boy
But it's such a good feeling today
When I can hear them from
Across the ocean singing this song
That the whole world should be singing
All the time
We′re different colors
(One people)
Different colors
(One people)
Different colors
(One people)
Different colors
(One people)
They got different colors
(One people)
Different colors
Hey you government
