Miss Black America Lyrics - Curtis - Curtis Mayfield

'Hello Daddy' 

'Hello baby, how is my love child?' 

'Fine' 

'Tell me, of all your dreams, what most do you hope te be when you become a big girl?' 

'Daddy, I would like to be Miss Black America' 

Hurringly stepping so proud 

Mother nature's only god child 

Society salutes you today 

And we'd like to say 

God bless Miss Black America 

Watch over Miss Black America 

She cried tears of succes 

We wish her long happiness 

Miss Black America 

Sisters we're all so very proud 

Of that natural look we se among the crowd 

World wide admiration 

From nation to nation 

They love you Miss Black America 

We love you too Miss Black America 

You're such wonderful people 

And so beautifully equal 

Miss Black America 

A culture noone can deny 

If a young child should ask 

Then tell them why 

They should not be ashamed 

Of their past, just explain 

The true mother is Black America 

None other than Miss Black America 

She cried tears of succes 

We wish her long happiness 

Miss Black America 

Miss Black America 

We're so proud of you 

Miss Black America
