《We People Who Are Darker Than Blue(Album Version)》歌词

[00:00:01] We People Who Are Darker than Blue (Album Version) - Curtis Mayfield

[00:00:07] We people who are darker than blue

[00:00:14] Don't let us stand around this town

[00:00:18] And let what others say come true

[00:00:22] We're just good for nothing

[00:00:25] They all figure

[00:00:27] A boyish grown up shiftless jigger

[00:00:32] Now we can't hardly stand for that

[00:00:36] Or is that really where it's at

[00:00:40] We people who are darker than blue

[00:00:47] They got no time for segregating

[00:00:51] I'm talking `bout brown and yellow too

[00:00:55] High yellow gal can't you tell

[00:00:59] I'm just the surface of our

[00:01:02] Dark deep well

[00:01:04] If your mind could really see

[00:01:08] You'd know your color same as me

[00:01:11] Pardon me brother

[00:01:16] As you stand in your glory

[00:01:21] I know you won't mind

[00:01:25] If I tell the whole story

[00:03:15] Now I know

[00:03:17] We have great respect

[00:03:20] For the sister and the mother

[00:03:25] It's even better yet

[00:03:29] But there's the joker in the street

[00:03:34] Loving one brother and

[00:03:36] Killing the other

[00:03:37] When the time comes and

[00:03:41] We are really free

[00:03:43] There'll be no brothers left you see

[00:03:48] We people who are darker than blue

[00:03:53] Don't let us hang around this town

[00:03:58] And let what others say come true

[00:04:03] We're just good for nothing

[00:04:05] They all figure

[00:04:07] A boyish grown up shiftless jigger

[00:04:09] Now we can't hardly stand for that

[00:04:16] Or is that really where it's at

[00:04:21] Pardon me brother

[00:04:24] As you stand in your glory

[00:04:28] I know you won't mind

[00:04:31] Now I know

[00:04:36] We have great respect

[00:04:38] For the sister and the mother

[00:04:41] It's even better yetIf I tell the whole story
