I 6 years old an out of sight
There's a pretty girl outside
But me no talk cause me ain't white
I don't understand difference
                           I see a little black boy
                          All alone looking at a stem
                        Who is he? Why is he so dark?
                    I think I'll ask mother about him
Loud knocking at the door
Theyre taking me from mommy
She's screaming, I'm crying
All I see is rope and a tree
                           I just got home from school
                         The colored boy is gone today
                         What a shame, I tell mom
                         I was going to ask him to play
