Choice Of Colors Lyrics - Gladys Knight

People must prove to the people 

A better day is coming 

But you wait for me oh yeah, yeah 

Alright, alright, alright, then he said 

If you had a choice of colors 

Which one would you choose my brothers 

If there were no day or night 

Which would you prefer to be right 

How long have you hated your white teacher 

Who told you to love your black preacher 

Could you respect your brother's woman friend 

And share with black folks not of kin 

People must prove to the people 

A better day is coming for you and for me 

And with a little bit more education 

With love for our nation will make a better society

Now some of us would rather cuss and make a fuss 

Than to bring about a little trust 

But we shall overcome our beliefs someday 

If you will only listen to what I have to say 

How long have you hated your white teacher 

Who told you to love your black preacher 

Can you respect your brother's woman friend 

And share with black folks not of kin 

I'm telling you, people must prove to the people 

A better day is coming for you and for me 

And with a little bit more education 

And love for our nation will make a better society 

If you had a choice of colors 

Which one would you choose my brothers 

If there were no day or night 

Which would you prefer to be right
