Lời & hợp âm

[Verse 1]
[G]My [F]lit[C]tle[F] bo[C]y came[Bb]
and [C]sat on my knee
With picture and [Bb]crayons in [G]his hand
He [C]said, when I grow [Bb]up
this [F]is [C]the man I want to be
[Bb]Daddy, what color is a [C]man?
When I'm a [Bb]man, I [C]want to be happy
I want [Bb]to be strong and [G]free
I [C]want to be [Bb]brave like a [C]soldier
What [Bb]crayon should I use to
color [C]me?[Bb][Eb][Bb][Eb]
[Bb]If you c[Eb]olor him blue, s[Bb]on,
he may not [Eb]be a happy ma[F]n.
[Eb]If you color[Ab] him red, [Eb]son,
[Ab]someone may steal his [Bb]land.
[F]If [Bb]you color him [F]green or yellow,
[C]he [F]may be jealou[Bb]s and coward[F]ly.[C]
[Dm]If you color him b[G]lack, son,
[Dm]he may never be fr[G]ee.[C]
Then I told my [Bb]son, your [C]crayons away
And try your [Bb]best to [G]understand
[C]Man is never [Bb]made of any [C]color
And [Bb]color never made any man
A [C]man, a man, man, a man
[Bb]Color never made any man
A man, a [C]man
