- Come to my door, baby
Face is clean and shining black as night
My mother went to answer
You know that you looked so fine
Now, I could understand your tears and your shame
She called you Boy instead of your name
When she wouldnt let you inside
When she turned and said, 'But honey, hes not our kind'
She says I cant see you any more, baby
Cant see you anymore
Walk me down to school, baby
Everybodys acting deaf and blind
Until they turn and say
Why dont you stick to your own kind
My teachers all laugh , they smirk and stare
Cuttin deep down in our affair
Preachers of equality, think they believe it
Then why wont they just let us be?
They say I cant see you anymore, baby
Cant see you anymore
One of these days Im gonna stop my listenin
Gonna raise my head up high
One of these days Im gonna raise my glistenin
Wings and fly
But that day will have to wait for awhile
Baby, Im only a societys child
When were older things may change
But for now this is the way they must remain
I say, I cant see you any more, baby
Cant see you anymore
No, I dont wanna see you any more, baby
