Black And White lyrics
by Three Dog Night



The ink is blackThe page is whiteTogether we learnTo read and writeTo read and write.The slate is blackThe chalk is whiteThe words stand outSo clear and brightSo clear and bright.A child is blackA child is whiteThe whole world looksUp on the sightA beautiful sight.And now a childCan understandThis is the lawOf all the landAII the land.And now at lastWe plainly seeThe alphabetOf LibertyLiberty.A child is blackA child is whiteThe whole world looksUp on this sight.The world is blackThe world is whiteIt turns by dayAnd then by nightIt turns by night.
