People ask me everywhere
They say, is that really all your hair?
I just tell them it it ain't

'Cause I just don't believe it's fair
To judge a man

The truth will shine and not your hair
Even the blind can damn near see
What's outside you and inside me
Down or high, truth or lie
A weak man's laugh can be
A strong man's cry

Black or blonde or nappy or fair
You can't judge nobody by hair
If I thought that you would care
I'd wear a wig up under my hair
Down or high, truth or lie
A weak man's laugh can be
A strong man's cry
