Oh, silly little brown girl
Don't you know, you were Born to teach and Bred to lead?
The world is waitin'
The people are hurtin
Oh, silly little brown girl
Keep a readin'
Keep a workin'
Keep a growin'
Keep a learnin'
Your people are callin'
Your world is callin'
Oh, silly little brown girl
Wipe 'em tears
Salve your Wounds
Have you not heard?
There are thousands of your kind
Marchin' for Freedom
Demandin' their name
Takin' their seat
Among the righteous of all
OH, silly little brown girl
For you aren't silly no more
For the years has beckoned you into
A Wise Wise Woman
