Elijah Kelley - Run And Tell That lyrics

Heyyy... I can't see why people look at me and only see the color of my face, oh yeah And then there's those that try to help, God knows, but have to always put me in my place Now I won't ask you to be color blind Cause if you pick the fruit, then girl, you're sure to find The blacker the berry, the sweeter the juice I could say it ain't so, but darlin', what's the use? The darker the chocolate, the richer the taste And that's where it's at Now baby, run and tell that (Run and tell that) Oh sugar, run and tell that (Run and tell that) Hey, yeah I can't see why people disagree each time I tell them what I know is true, no, no And if you come and see the world I'm from, I bet your heart is gonna feel it too Yeah, I could lie but baby, let's be bold Vanilla can be nice, but if the truth be told The blacker the berry, the sweeter the juice I could say it ain't so, but darlin', what's the use? The darker the chocolate, the richer the taste And that's where it's at Ooh, baby, baby, run and tell that (Run and tell that) Oh sugar, go run and tell that (Run and tell that) G-g-go on and run and tell that (Run and tell that) Hey, yeah, run and tell, go tell Keep moving, baby, run and tell that(Run and tell that) Hey, yeah, yeah yeah yeah Hey, woo, oooh... Come here girl. This is my sister Little Inez Oh, I know Tracy Turnblad. Good for you, girl, you got on the show! Well, you better be next! You got that right! Oh you know she is. You better show 'em girl... I'm tired of coverin' up all my pride (So give me five on the black-hand side) I've got a new way of movin' and I got my own voice (So how can I help but to shout and rejoice?) Oh, the people 'round here can barely pay their rent They're tryin' to make dollar out o' fifteen cent But we got a spirit money just can't buy It's deep as a river, it soars to the sky I can't see the reason it can't be the kinda world that where we all get our chance, yeah The time is now, so we can show them how to turn the music up and let's all dance, yeah Cause all things are equal when it comes to love Well, that ain't quite true cause when a push comes to shove The blacker the berry, the sweeter the juice I could say it ain't so, but darlin', what's the use? The darker the chocolate, the richer the taste And that's where it's at Now baby, baby, baby, run and tell that (Run and tell that) Yeah, run and tell that (Run and tell that) Oh baby, go run and tell that (Run and tell that) G-g-g-g-go on girl, and run and tell that... Thaaat...yeah Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah... Woo!
