Paul, Billy - Am I Black Enough For You? Lyrics
Am I black enough for you
Am I black enough for you
Am I black enough for you
Am I black enough for you
One by one
We ain't gonna stop
Until the work is done
Am I black enough
Black enough for you
Am I black
Black enough for you
We're gonna move on up
And this whole world
Is gonna be brand new
Am I black enough for you
Am I black enough for you
Get in line
Stop marching in time
You better make up your mind
We're gonna leave you behind
We're gonna move on up
Three by three
We gotta get rid of poverty
I got to stay black
Black enough for you
I got to stay black
Black enough for you
We're gonna move on up
Four by four
We ain't never
Gonna suffer no more
I got to stay black
Black enough for you
I got to stay black
Black enough for you
Get in line
Stop marching in time
You better make up your mind
We're gonna leave you behind
Make up your mind
Stop marching in time
Get in line
You better make up your mind
We're gonna get on up
Five by five
And this whole world
Is gonna come alive
Am I black
Black enough for you
Am I black enough for you
We're gonna move on up
Six by six
I gotta use my mind
Instead of my fists
Am I black
Black enough for you
Am I black
Black enough for you
We're gonna move on up
Seven by seven
We're God's children
And we got to get to Heaven
Am I black enough for you
Am I black enough for you
We gotta move on up
Eight by eight
Without no witness
We ain't too late
Am I black
Black enough for you
Am I black
Black enough for you
Freedom, freedom
It got to be spended
I could take it
If I could spend it one time
We got to stay
Black enough for you
I gotta, gotta black
Black enough for you...

ICE BAHNのLEGACYから来た人✋
Dock Ellis brought me here
I like the Cleveland Show version better
HE look like Rick Ross.. nice song.. never heard this
What a fake. Everything about XIAIO to him is about taking. Who is going to take credit as an AEROSMITH? Who is the Air Force creating credited to? Will the engineering be credited to Empire Builders or the MASONS? What about the Tanzanian fallen? What memorial and the truth about the ZYGOT? Was he there? What an insult. "Am I black enough for you?" Being sung to black American women? What about black African women? And as far as insults go
Some would argue whites can’t get down. I can prove that wrong
Philly FUNK
RIP LEGEND
💪🇧🇷💪
Anyone else here cause of Atlanta?
This the Cut!!!!!!
I absolutely love this song ❤️🙏🏽☮️
Black Panthers: Vanguard of the revolution brought me here!!!! This song is sooo dope!!!
Black Panther Documentary on Netflix brought me here ❤️
A Black Panther documentary brought me here
Conheço um cara que é da noite
Told my girl, tonight we puttin' the F.U.K in funky baby
Always BLACK!
Deep Cover’s soundtrack did not send me here. ✊🏾🖤✊🏾
Those REAL SOUL DUDES, bought this in the 70s, when it came out, or the 80s, if they spent time in d white folks prisons, lol. You shouldn't of needed to see a fucking film before you heard of such a bombastic track.
That sounds horrible!
Som da porra maloco.....crazy very crazy....
あいすばーん
🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🎧
sampling
Magnífico, que música, som de primeira qualidade. Quem curte em 2019?
Carlos Henrique Rodrigues ei adoro billy paul, novembro 2019
RIP Billy Paul
The Cleveland showed
wtf is "black lightning?
cleveland
straight up gangsta soundzzz
yo this song is so good i cant stop playing it Black lighting very good show
You mean this song has actually become popular once again? Wow! Guess Kenneth Gamble and Leon Huff were correct in promoting this song after "Me And Mrs. Jones" over "I'm Gonna Make It This Time". Guess that's why they're Gamble & Huff.
Nah, they really weren't. Billy Paul should've been way bigger than he was. He got robbed.
I never knew Billy Paul sung this! So he's not a 1 hit wonder after all. (Me and Mrs. Jones)
You musta never heard "Lets make a baby".. wooo
This was not a hit lol.
Great song, but it sadly wasn't a hit. Let's make a baby was the closest he had to a second hit.
Check out Billy Paul's WAR OF THE GODS CD. Just trying to turn you on to some GOOD MUSIC from 1973.
AMI BLACK ENOUGH for YOU?
😎🍷💋👅
yes ma'am!
Cleveland Brown...lllmao
When I hear this guy sing it reminds me of Kermit the frog
it's Sad that people only know about old music when its on tv shows or movies i guess people are too lazy to find music on their own
so damn true!!! i LIVED this stuff!
It is but it isn't, I was raised on this music & I raised my kids on it. However not everyday was exposed to it, because they may have only been allowed to listen to gospel. I know ppl like that or they are a younger generation like my kids & their parents didn't listen to it.
@Spirtual Gangsta They're lost.
I hope they did Billy Paul right and paid him his money for using this song not like those thieves that stole his Mrs. Jones song where he had to sue to get his money.
Black enough black enough for ya
ToddInTheShadows!
I feel like this is the song that was being paraphrased for "Steppin' To The Bad Side" from DreamGirls.
Scandal S06E06
Schoolly D brought me...
What does the CW know about old school music? ⚡️#blacklightning
I found where Schooly D sampled this from. Now my life is complete. Almost anyway. The original is funkeh beyond belief.
Top Notch Those horns from Soul Power by Maseo and the Macks were sampled also
@Roy Williamson I would believe that because it's one powerful track. The horns, keys and all of its entirety. 👍
RIP to my God Father, Billy PAUL, say hello to Blance!
Damn, I didn’t know Billy passed away. I haven’t seen him in years but was in a program with him and his wife Blanch(a beautiful and loving woman). He was a true cool cat.
ATLANTA?
mom told me to listen happy mothers day 2018
Scandal brought me here
The song is alright, but at the time it came out it was a bad move by the record company, trying to make Billy Paul's image more threatening and masculine after "Me and Mrs Jones" came out, i like the way it builds on certain sections but it gets very repetitive.
I remember this from 1973.
who's black lightning? is his sidekick called colored thunder?
vanguard of the revolution
ThANks Blk ⚡️... didn’t know Billy Paul got down like this!!!
This song was sample by cross movement the Last cypha history album
I haven't actually seen Black lightning, but it's good somebodies finally figured out the potential of Nostalgic Blaxplotation.
Yep Im one with everyone. BLACK LIGHTNING 😎🤘💣🎶🎵🎧🎷☇🌩⛈☈
I didn't know about this being on the Black Lightening soundtrack. I came here to school my 10 yr old on a classic track.
Now, this is good parenting.
Black lightning 👊👊👊👊
Black lighting crew squad up
Black lightning brought here
So is this like Black Lightning's official theme now? lol :)
It should be.
Black Lightning brought me here. Also, RIP Billy Paul.
The Cleveland Show ?
Britisches Bananen Brot yep
Black Lightning??
Door man: Black Lightning,
MY MAN!
Black Lightning: Lala, What floor?
Door Man: Penthouse
Black Lightning: "Thanks brotha."
✊✊✊
I got the elevator for you.
Black Lightning: I'll take the stairs. Just getting back into this. A brotha needs all the exercise he can get.
Or something like that I recall. Anyways this song makes me think of the black Lightning my man scene as well.
My Dad's old record collection brought me here.......oh, and also........Black Lightning .... "My Man".
Love the black lighting soundtrack bringing all the good music back!!!!!
I started watching the show because of the stories they are going to telling but now I watch for the music
For real. I liked the first episode well enough, but loved having Gil Scott Heron back in my life.
Eric Mack Atlanta also brought me here
