Oh black man, God needs you to sing his songs
Oh black man, he needs you to help right all the wrongs
Yes he does
ย
Don't you know there is so much work to be done
Don't you know there's a race to be run
He's depending on you, yes he is
Oh, oh black man, God needs you to sing his songs
Ooh black man, he needs you to help right all the world's wrongs
Yes he does, oh yeah
Don't you know there is work to be done
Don't you know there's a race to be run
He's depending on you, yes he is

Your name used to be colored man
But they changed it from that to Negro
So now that you've been identified
Get up and take your stand
Hey, I'm talking to you, black man
Oh, oh, oh, oh yeah
I'm talkin' to you, black man, oh yeah
I'm makin' my appeal right now
Yeah, yeah
I'm talking to the rich man
To the poor man
Talking to the hard man
And I won't forget the low man
Talking to the short man, the tall man
The fat man, the thin man, listen
Red man, yellow man, green man
The brown man, the blue man, the white man
Oh, black man, woo-hoo
Making my appeal right now
Woo-hoo-hoo-hoo
