When I Born, I Black
When I grow up, I Black
When I go in the Sun, I Black
When I scared, I Black
When I sick, I Black
And when I die, I Black.

And You White Fellow
When You Born, You Pink
When You grow up, You White
When You go in the Sun, You Red
When You Cold, You Blue
When You Scared, You Yellow
When You sick, You green
And when You die, You gray
And then You call me colored????
