Chocolate Baby

Latin X 1967 (Philadelphia)

Rhymed
Chocolate baby you’re loved.
You stand out in the crowd.
Chocolate baby your coarse coils you wear like a crown. Your beautiful skin tone they envy.

Chocolate baby don’t let them bring you down.  Don’t let them see you frown.
Be proud of who you are.

You are a queen amongst queens.  Let me build your self esteem.
 Let me turn your frown upside down.

Don’t let them tear you down. You’re my queen. My little chocolate dream
