Roy Ayers - Red Black and Green

Red black and green
If you think about it you know what I mean
Red black and green
If you think about it you know what I mean
Red black and green
If you think about it you know what I mean
Red black and green
If you think about it you know what I mean

Red is for the eastern side
-
Red is for the blood we share
Red is for our thousands dead
Red is for our liberty
We fight for our own nation yeah

Red black and green
If you think about it you know what I mean
Black is for the mother land
Black is for the proud black man
Black is for the beautiful face
Of a proud and beautiful place
Black is for the soil we need
So a nation we can feed

Red black and green
If you think about it you know what I mean

Green is for the seed of freedom planted in our minds
Green is for that seed to grow free from all the fires
Green is for the earth to feel -
Red black and green
If you think about it you know what I mean

Red black and green
If you think about it you know what I mean
Red black and green
If you think about it you know what I mean
Red black and green
If you think about it you know what I mean
Red black and green
If you think about it you know what I mean

If you think about it you know what I mean
If you think about it you know what I mean
If you think about it you know what I mean
