Hopped in my car   Went down to Birmingham, Alabama   There I went to the Museum Of Civil Rights   And got a lesson in suffering      There I saw the likes of Rosa Parks   Medgar Evers, Dr. Martin Luther King   And I got all emotional singin'   "We shall overcome, let freedom ring"      So now, I'm looking for a boy, looking for a girl   Who's got a dream inside to change the world   Give me a lady, come on give me a man   Who's strong enough to take a stand      And be a black light, a candle in the darkness   We need some more, black light, courageous and strong   'Til there is no more bigotry and madness   All it takes is a spark, and the fire will burn on and on      I stood on my front porch with all the lights out   Guess what I was seeing   There was a myriad of diamonds flung out   Across a velvet sky      And it served to remind me   Of the perseverance of those before me   'Cause the darker the night   The brighter the starlights are gonna shine      So I'm looking for a boy, looking for a girl   Who's got a dream inside to change the world   Give me a lady, come on give me a man   Who's strong enough to take a stand      And be a black light, a candle in the darkness   We need some more, black light, courageous and strong   'Til there is no more bigotry and madness   All it takes is a spark and the fire will burn on and on   I said the fire will burn on and on   You know the fire will burn on and on      Well, I need more   Black light, black light, black light, black light   Black light, black light, black light, black light   Black light, black light, black light, black light   Black light, black light, black light, black light
