Billy Paul - 360 Degrees of Billy Paul (Expanded Edition)

Am I Black Enough For You? - Single Version

Am I black enough for you?
Am I black enough for you?
Am I black enough for you?
Am I black enough for you?

We're gonna move on up, one by one
We ain't gonna stop until the work is done

Am I black enough, black enough for you?
Am I black, black enough for you?

We're gonna move on up, two by two
And this whole world is gonna be brand new

Am I black enough for you?
Am I black enough for you?

Get in line
Don't march in time
You better make up your mind
We're gonna leave you behind

We're gonna move on up three by three
We gotta get rid of poverty

I got to stay black, black enough for you
I got to stay black, black enough for you

We're gonna move on up, four by four
We ain't never gonna suffer no more

I got to stay black, black enough for you
I got to stay black, black enough for you

Get in line, aha, ha
Stop marching in time
You better make up your mind
We're gonna leave you behind

Open up your mind
Don't march your time
Get in line
You better make up your mind

We're gonna get on up five by five
And this whole world is gonna come alive

Am I black, black enough for you
Am I black enough for you?

We're gonna move on up six by six
I gotta use my mind instead of my fists

Am I black, black enough for you
Am I black, black enough for you

We're gonna move on up, seven by seven
We're God's children and we got to get to Heaven

Am I black enough for you?
Am I black enough for you?

We gotta move on up, eight by eight
Without no witness
We ain't too late

Am I black, black enough for you
Am I black, black enough for you

Freedom, freedom
It got to be spended
I could take it, no
If I could spend it one time
I'm not weak, and I'm not to stop
But I've been, I've been alone too long
Got to, got to stay black enough for you
I gotta, gotta black, black enough for you
