"Well, you wonder why I always dress in black? Why you never see bright colors on my back? And why does my appearance seem to have a somber tone? There's a reason for the things that I have on"
I wear the black for the poor and beaten down Livin' on the hopeless, hungry side of town I wear it for the prisoners who has long paid for his crime But is there because he's a victim of the times
I'm the man
"Well I wear the black for those who've never read Or listened to the words that Jesus said About the road to happiness through love and charity Why do you think He's talkin' straight to you and me?"
Were doing mighty fine I do suppose In our streak a lightnin' cars and fancy clothes But, just so were reminded of the ones who are held back Up front there ought to be a man in black
I'm the man "I'm the man in black" I'm the man The man in black
"I wear it for the sick and lonely old For the reckless ones whose bad trip left them cold" I wear the black in mourning for the lives that could have been Each week we lose a hundred fine young men
"Well, there's things that never will be right, I know" And things need changin' everywhere we go But 'til we start to make a move to make a few things right "You'll never see me wear a suite of white"
"Oh, I'd love to wear a rainbow every day And tell the world that everything's O.K. But I'll try to carry off a little darkness on my back 'Til things are brighter", I'm the man in black "Yeah"
I'm the man "The man in black" I'm the man The man in black, oh yeah I'm the man "The man in black" I'm the man I am, I am, I am the man in black I'm the man "Because I care" I'm the man "Because I believe" I'm the man I said I'm the man 'Til things are brighter "I'm the man in black"
The man in black Oh yeah I'm the man Man in black I'm the man Yeah, I'm the man in black Oh, excuse me ??? I guess it's you "That's all right, we're all in this together ???"Teksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
