Lyrics

Brown baby brown baby As you grow up I want you to drink from the plenty cup I want you to stand up tall and proud I want you to speak up clear and loud Brown baby Brown baby brown baby As years roll by I want you to go with your head held high I want you to live by the justice code And I want you to walk down the freedom road Brown baby Now lie away lie away spleeping Lie away here in my arms While your daddy and you mama protect you And keep you safe from harm Oh you little brown baby Brown baby It makes me glad That you will have things I have never had When out of men's hearts all the hate is hurled You're gonna live in a better world Brown baby
