Color

Just because my skin is brown

It don't define who I am

I could be a porcupine

Or I could be a little lamb



Please don't try and judge me

Only by the colors you have seen

To love me is to know me

Whether red, yellow, black or green



(Chorus)

Color is skin deep

But true beauty lives on and on

Color is skin deep

But true beauty lives on and on



Her skin might be ivory

And he might be from Japan

But that don't make a better woman

That don't make a lesser man



Please don't try to judge 'em

Only by the colors you have seen

To love 'em is to know 'em

Whether red, yellow, white, or green



(Chorus)



(Bridge)

Color is the shape of the rainbow

Color is the tint of the sky

It's not a person, place or thing

It's only a description of you and I

Like the colors on the frame of a house

Will not tell you of the colors within

So why would I try to judge

A man by the shade of his skin?



(Chorus)
