Lyrics
0:23Coming from where he did
0:28He was turned away from every door like Joseph
0:34To even the toughest among us
0:36That would be too much
0:45He didn't know what it was to be black
0:51'Till they gave him his change
0:54But didn't want to touch his hand
0:56To even the toughest among us
1:01That would be too much
1:08Isn't it just enough
1:12How hard it is to live
1:17Isn't it hard enough
1:19Just to make it through a day
1:30The secret of their fear and their suspicion
1:42Standing there looking like an angel
1:47In his brown shoes his short suit
1:50His white shirt and his cuffs a little frayed
1:53Coming from where he did
1:58He was such a dignified child
2:04To even the toughest among us
2:09That would be too much
Coming from where he did He was turned away from every door like Joseph To even the toughest among us That would be too much He didn't know what it was to be black 'Till they gave him his change But didn't want to touch his hand To even the toughest among us That would be too much Isn't it just enough How hard it is to live Isn't it hard enough Just to make it through a day The secret of their fear and their suspicion Standing there looking like an angel In his brown shoes his short suit His white shirt and his cuffs a little frayed Coming from where he did He was such a dignified child To even the toughest among us That would be too much
