Melting Pot

Big enough now

And we gonna keep stirring, stirring

Big enough nowTake a pinch of white man

Wrap it up in black skin

Add a touch of blue blood

And a little bitty bit of Red Indian boyCurly, black and kinky

Oriental sexy

If you lump it all together

Well, you've got a recipeFor a get along scene

Oh what a beautiful dream

If it could only come true

You know, you knowWhat we need is a great big melting pot

Big enough to take the world and all it's got

Keep it stirring for a hundred years or more

Turning out coffee colored people by the scoreRabbis and the friars

Bishops and the gurus

We had the Beatles and the Sun Gods

A long time ago, it's trueBut then it didn't really matter

What religion you choose

No, no, noMick and Lady Faithful

Lord and Mrs. Graceful

You know the living could be tastefulWhy don't we all get together

In a loving machine

I'd better call up the Queen

It's only fair that she knows

You know, you knowWhat we need is a great big melting pot

Big enough to take the world and all it's got

Keep it stirring for a hundred years or more

Turning out coffee colored people by the scoreWhat we need is a great big melting pot

Big enough, big enough, big enough

To take the world and all it's got

Keep it stirring for a hundred years or more

Turning out coffee colored people by the scoreWhat we need is a great big melting pot

Big enough, big enough, big enough

To take the world and all it's got

Keep it stirring for a hundred years or more
