Pretty Brown Baby
why do you cry?
why do you yearn to make yourself look so pitiful?
why are you so sad?
why not put a smile on that pretty brown face and dry your eyes?
'cause everything is goin' be alright
Pretty Brown Baby
the sun is shinning
the trees are blowing
the leaves are falling
the world is turning
right before your eyes
Pretty Brown Baby
praying
sleeping
running
talking
playing
jumping
flipping
falling
hoping for the colors to blend
with scents of hope, grace and beauty
is
Pretty Brown Baby
growing
beautiful as ever
much love and unity to you always!
