The Supremes When Can Brown Begin song lyrics

To my mind, it always seems a little strange

That people won't do the things you know they ought to

Some folks say the world, ain't never gonna change

But in my heart I do believe those are the folks who guide to

Can't or for not to

The day turns bright, the night turns wonderful

Twilight never really brings into an end

If white is right and black is beautiful

Lord, tell me when can brown begin?

Tell me, people, when can brown begin?

Fire and water won't be mixed in, so they say

But I've seen the steam clouds floating high and free

Salt and pepper don't get in each other's way

No, they just cook together

And when they don't agree, they just let each other be

The day turns bright and night turns wonderful

Twilight never really brings into an end

If white is right and black is beautiful

Lord, tell me when can brown begin?

Tell me, people, when can brown begin?

The night turns wonderful

Twilight never really brings into an end

If white is right and black is beautiful

Oh Lord, when can brown begin?

Tell me, people, when can brown begin?
