Nina Simone Lyrics

"Brown Baby" lyrics


Oscar Brown jr
Brown Baby Brown BabyAs you grow up I want you to drink from the plenty cupI want you to stand up tall and proudAnd I want you to speak up clear and loudBrown Baby Brown Baby Brown Baby
As years go by I want you to go with your head up highI want you to live by the justice codeAnd I want you to walk down freedom's roadYou little Brown Baby

Lie away sleeping lie away safe in my armsTill your daddy and you mama protect you?nd keep you safe from harmBrown Baby
It makes me glad you gonna have things that I never hadWhen out of men's heart all hate is hurledSweetie you gonna live in a better worldBrown Baby Brown Baby Brown Baby
