Lời & hợp âm

[Verse 1]
[D]One day, a little boy climbed
up on his daddy's knee
With picture and crayons in his [A]hand
He said, [D]"When I grow up,
this is a man I want to be
[C]Daddy, what color is a man?"
[D]

[Verse 2]
[D]"When I'm a man, I want to be happy
I want to be strong and [A]free
I [D]want to be brave like a soldier
What [C]crayon should I use
to color [D]me?"
[C][F][C][F]

[Verse 3]
[C]If you col[F]or him blu[C]e son,
he may not [F]be a happy [G]man
[F]If you col[Bb]or him red[F] son,
[Bb]someone may steal his [C]land
[G]If you col[C]or him gre[G]en or yellow[D],
he [G]may be [C]jealous and [G]cowardly[D]
[Em]If you color him black[A] son,
[Em]he may never be free[A]
[D]

[Verse 4]
He told him, "Son, put your crayons away
And try your best to under[A]stand
[D]Man's never made of any color, my boy
[C]Color never made any man,
any man..."
(No man, no man, no [D]man, no man)
