Say It Loud - I'm Black And I'm Proud (Pt. 2)

Uh! Your bad self!

Say it loud! I'm black and I'm proud

Say it louder! I'm black and I'm proud

Look a-here!

Some people say we got a lot of malice, some say it's a lotta nerve

But I say we won't quit movin' until we get what we deserve

We've been buked and we've been scourned

We've been treated bad, talked about as sure as you're born

But just as sure as it take two eyes to make a pair, huh!

Brother we can't quit until we get our share

Say it loud, I'm black and I'm proud

Say it loud, I'm black and I'm proud

One more time, say it loud, I'm black and I'm proud, huh!

I've worked on jobs with my feet and my hands

But all the work I did was for the other man

And now we demands a chance to do things for ourselves

We tired of beatin' our head against the wall

An' workin' for someone else

Say it loud! I'm black and I'm proud

Say it loud! I'm black and I'm proud

Say it loud! I'm black and I'm proud

Say it loud! I'm black and I'm proud, oh!

Ooh-wee, you're killin' me

Alright, uh, you're out of sight!

Alright, so tough you're tough enough!

Ooh-wee uh! you're killin' me! oow!

Say it loud! I'm black and I'm proud

Say it louder! I'm black and I'm proud

Now we demand a chance to do things for ourselves

We tired of beatin' our heads against the wall

And workin' for someone else look a-here

There's one thing more I got to say right here

Now, now we're people, we're like the birds and the bees

We rather die on our feet than keep livin' on our knees

Say it loud, I'm black and I'm proud huh!

Say it loud, I'm black and I'm proud huh!

Say it loud, I'm black and I'm proud Lord-a, Lord-a, Lord-a

Say it loud, I'm black and I'm proud, ooh!

Uh! alright now, good God

You know we can do the boogaloo
