Nina At The Village Gate

Lyrics 

Brown Baby Brown Baby
 As you grow up I want you to drink from the plenty cup
 I want you to stand up tall and proud
 And I want you to speak up clear and loud
 Brown Baby Brown Baby Brown Baby
 As years go by I want you to go with your head up high
 I want you to live by the justice code
 And I want you to walk down freedom's road
 You little Brown Baby
 Lie away sleeping lie away safe in my arms
 Till your daddy and you mama protect you
 ? nd keep you safe from harm
 Brown Baby
 It makes me glad you gonna have things that I never had
 When out of men's heart all hate is hurled
 Sweetie you gonna live in a better world
 Brown Baby Brown Baby Brown Baby
