Come to my door, baby

Face is clean and shining black as night

Mama went to answer you know

Said you looked so fine

Now I can understand your tears and your pain

She called you girl instead of your name

When she wouldn't let you inside

When she turned and said

"But honey, she's not our kind"

She says I can't see you anymore, baby

Can't see you anymore

Walk me down to school, baby

People acting like they're deaf and blind

'Til they turn and say

"Why don't you stick to your own kind"

My teachers laugh, their smirking stares

Cutting deep down in our affairs

Preachers of equality

They said believe it

Then why won't they just let us be?

She said I can't see you anymore, baby

I can't see you anymore

One of these days I'm gonna stop my listening

Gonna raise my head up high

One of these days I'm gonna spread

My glistening wings and fly

But that day will have to wait for a while

Baby, I'm only society's child

When we're older, things may change

But for now that's the way they must remain

I say I can't see you anymore, baby

I can't see you anymore

I can't see you anymore, baby

I can't see you anymore
