[Verse 1]
Degradation takes a soul potential
The woman ain't to blame
Infiltrate the morning's passing hours
But love remains the same
[Chorus]
I know, I wish you were black
But ain't no use you pretending
She ain't ever coming back
To put you on the right track
[Verse 2]
Un-American humour
With all American smile
Love is on the horizon baby
But no one can reply well well
[Chorus]
I know I wish you were black
But it ain't no use singing gospel
She ain't ever coming back
To put you on the right track
She put you on the right track
Put you on the right, right, right
She put you on the right track
Yeah
[Bridge]
Breezin', breezin', she's no lover
Nobody's lover, babe
She says, breezin', breezin'
[Verse]
Satisfaction unrequited, baby
A ghetto in your heart
Hoards of mass production, baby
Is keeping us apart, well well
[Chorus]
I know I wish you were black
But ain't no use singing gospel
She ain't ever coming back
To put you on the right track
Ooh, put you on the right track, yeah
She put you on the right, right, right
She put you on the right track
Yeah
[Chorus]
I know I wish you were black
But ain't no use singing gospel
She ain't ever coming back
To put you on the right track
She put you on the right track
Put you on the right, right, right
She put you on the right track, yeah
Put you on the right track
Put you on the right track, yeah
Put you on the right track
