Take a pinch of white man |
|
Wrap him up in black skin |
|
Add a touch of blue blood |
|
And a little bitty bit of Red Indian boy |
|
Curly Latin kinkies |
|
Mixed with yellow Chinkees |
|
If you lump it all together |
|
Well, you got a recipe for a get along scene |
|
Oh, what a beautiful dream |
|
If it could only come true, you know, you know |
|
What we need is a great big melting pot |
|
Big enough to take the world and all it's got |
|
And keep it stirring for a hundred years or more |
|
And turn out coffee colored people by the score |
|
Rabbis and the Friars |
|
Vishnus and the Gurus |
|
You got the Beatles or the Sun God, it's true |
|
Well, it really doesn't matter what religion you choose |
|
No, no no |
|
Making Lady Favor |
|
Mrs. Graceful |
|
You know that livin' could be tasteful |
|
We should all get together in a lovin' machine |
|
I better call up the Queen |
|
It's only fair that she knows, you know, you know |
|
What we need is a great big melting pot |
|
Big enough to take the world and all it's got |
|
And keep it stirring for a hundred years or more |
|
And turn out coffee colored people by the score |
|
What we need, what we need is a great big melting pot |
|
Big enough, big enough, big enough |
|
To take the world and all it's got |
|
And keep it stirring for a hundred years or more |
|
And turn out coffee colored people by the score |
|
What we need is a great big melting pot |
|
Big enough, big enough, big enough |
|
To take the world and all it's got |
|
And keep it stirring for a hundred years or more |
|
And turn out coffee colored people by the score |
|
What we need is a great big melting pot |
|
Big enough, big enough, big enough |
|
To take the world and all it's got |
|
Keep it stirring for a hundred years or more |
