Black and White (Ink Is Black) Pete Seeger

Oh, the ink is black, the page is white
Together we learn to read and write
To read and write
And now a child can understand
This is the law of all the land
All the land

[Chorus with child's voice]:
Oh, the ink is black, the page is white
Together we learn to read and write
To read and write

Their robes were black, their heads were white
The schoolroom doors were closed so tight
Wеre closed up tight

Nine judgеs all, set down their names
To end the years and years of shame
Years of shame

[Chorus with child's voice]:
Their robes were black, their heads were white

Oh, the slate is black, the chalk is white
The words stand out so clear and bright
So clear and bright
