Lyrics

Doo ba, doo ba, ooh-ooh Doo ba, doo ba, ooh-ooh Doo ba, doo ba, ooh-ooh Doo ba, doo ba, ooh-ooh I never thought I'd live to see The way you treated me You showing me all your convictions And still we cannot see I know that you have got the power To license right from wrong But I know when you feel you got the one Another one will come along, oh 'Cause I was-a born tuff You said I wasn't good enough 'Cause I was-a born tuff You said I wasn't good enough You've woken up and changed the rules You call philanthropy, yeah Human rights is just a word To you but not for me You're hoping now that we're afraid Of your technology But I know, we all got to go So why should that now frighten me, oh 'Cause I was-a born tuff You said I wasn't good enough 'Cause I was-a born tuff You said I wasn't good enough All right Oh... Oh... White boys sing of our condition But you won't listen to we, no They know you're practicing racism Right down from A to Z Painting God in-a your image And the devil just like we But I won't kill my brother for my neighbor The time is up, it's love you see, oh 'Cause I was-a born tuff You said I wasn't good enough 'Cause I was-a born tuff You said I wasn't good enough Oh... Oh... 'Cause I was-a born tuff You said I wasn't good enough I never thought I'd live to see The way you're treating me You showing me all your convictions And still we cannot see I know that you have got the power To license right from wrong But I know when you feel you got the one Another one will come along 'Cause I was-a born tuff You said I wasn't good enough 'Cause I was-a born tuff You said I wasn't good enough 'Cause I was-a born tuff You said I wasn't good enough 'Cause I was-a born tuff You said I wasn't good enough 'Cause I was-a born tuff You said I wasn't good enough
