Lyrics
0:16I've been around a while
0:19I know wrong from right
0:23And since a long time ago
0:25Things been always black and white
0:30Just like you can't judge a book by the cover
0:37We all gotta be careful
0:40How we treat one another
0:43I say
0:44Skin deep skin deep
0:51Underneath we all look same
0:59Skin deep skin deep
1:05Underneath don't we all look the same
1:26A man in Louisiana
1:30He never called me by my name
1:33He said boy do this and boy do that
1:37But I never once complained
1:41I knew he had a good heart
1:43But he just didn't understand
1:47That I needed to be treated
1:51Just like any other man
1:56Skin deep skin deep
2:02Underneath don't we all look the same
2:10Skin deep skin deep
2:16Underneath we all look the same
2:52I sat my little child down
2:55When he was old enough to know
2:58I said I fear in this big wide world
3:02You're gonna meet all kinda folks
3:05I said son it all comes down to just one simple rule
3:13That you treat everybody just the way
3:16You want them to treat you
3:21Skin deep skin deep
3:27Underneath don't we all look the same
