Black girl, so fine and bright
Black girl, you shine as the night
Black girl, you move me so right
I just have to make you mine
Because you make me lose my mind

Black girl, with beauty so deep
Black girl, just rock me to sleep
Black girl, good things you will reap
Because you're of the ancient vine
And you're from another time
And your history's all in line

Ain't it funny how I used to wonder
How could such a lovely girl give me love
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, yeah, yeah

Black girl, your ancestry's long
Black girl, you're where you belong
Black girls, have got to be strong
Got to keep your spirits high
Got to keep yourselves alive
You're just going to make it fine

Listen baby you're the jewel of my eye
Come on girl
Everything's going to be alright
Listen baby
I just got to make you mine
