Band: Grey Hound Album: (unknown album) Song: BLACK AND WHITE The ink is black the page is white together we learn to read and write to read and write. And now a child can understand this is the law of all the land all the land ! The ink is black the page is white together we learn to read and write to read and write. The slate is black the chalk is white the words stand out so clear and bright so clear and bright. And now at last we plainly see the alphabet of liberty liberty ! The slate is black the chalk is white the words stand out so clear and bright A child is black a child is white the whole world looks upon the sight a beautiful sight. for very well the whole world knows this is the way that freedom grows freedom grows ! A child is black a child is white the whole world looks upon the sight a beautiful sight. The world is black the world is white it turns by day and then by night it turns by night. It turns so each and ev'ryone can take his station in the sun in the sun ! The world is black the world is white it turns by day and then by night it turns by night. Their robes were black their heads were white the school-house doors were closed so tight were closed up tight nine judges all set down their names to end the years and years of shame years of shame. Their robes were black their heads were white the school-house doors were closed so tight were closed up tight. --- http://www.lyricsdot.com/ - 95000+ lyrics from 10000+ bands online
