Marcia Griffiths & Bob Andy – Young Gifted And Black
Young, gifted, and black
Oh what a lovely, precious dream
To be young, gifted, and black
Open your heart to what I mean
In the world you know
There’s a million boys and girls
Who are young, gifted, and black
And that’s a fact
Young, gifted, and black
We must begin to tell our young
There’s a world waiting for you
Yours is the quest that’s just begun
When you’re feeling real low,
There’s a great truth you should know
To be young, gifted, and black
Your soul’s intact
Oh young, gifted, and black
Oh how I long to know the truth
There were times when I look back
When I am haunted by my youth
Oh but my joys of today
Is that we can all be proud to say
To be young, gifted, and black
Is where it’s at
Young, gifted, and black
We must begin to tell our young
There’s a world waiting for you
Yours is the quest that’s just begun
When you’re feeling real low,
There’s a great truth you should know
To be young, gifted, and black
Your soul’s intact
Oh young, gifted, and black
Oh how I long to know the truth
There were times when I look back
When I am haunted by my youth
Oh but my joys of today
Is that we can all be proud to say
To be young, gifted, and black
Is where it’s at, is where it’s at, is where it’s at
