7 in the morning 
D                     Em 
She has to make a choice 
C             G 
Precious baby girl, 
     G             D 
Or a bouncing baby boy 
Em               C 
She could either keep it, 
   G                Em 
Or give that child away 
   Am 
So she quit school that morning, 
Am                    D 
And became a mom that day 


         G 
Ain't no right way, 
          C 
To do the wrong thing, 
        D 
You can justify, 
               G 
But it's still black and white, 
Asus4        A 
Paint it any shade, 
        C 
But it won't change 
         C     Bm Am G D/F# 
Ain't no right way, 
          G             D 
To do the wrong thing

News came on my TV, 
D                  Em 
A mother cried and said, 
         C                G 
That her son was fighting for his life 
G                          D 
Cause her husband lost his head, 
Em                C 
Might have been a problem child, 
G                Em 
If that boy were mine, 
  Am 
I wouldn't beat him half to death, 
Am                          D 
Trying to make him walk the line 


         G 
Ain't no right way, 
          C 
To do the wrong thing, 
        D 
You can justify, 
               G 
But it's still black and white, 
Asus4        A 
Paint it any shade, 
        C 
But it won't change 
         C     Bm Am G D/F# 
Ain't no right way, 
          G             D 
To do the wrong thing

Now empowered politicians, 
D                 Em 
Trying to pass a law, 
C                  G 
They won't let our children pray 
G                 D 
For the better of us all, 
Em               C 
If God blessed America, 
     G                 Em 
Then how could someone vote, 
Am 
To take prayer from our classrooms, 
Am                            D 
Right when we need prayer the most 


         G 
Ain't no right way, 
          C 
To do the wrong thing, 
        D 
You can justify,

But it's still black and white,
