Baby girl she was born to a woman
White skin, light skin, with freckles all over
Her daddy had dark chocolate skin
Afro, let's go, beautiful couple
White suburban, middle class neighborhood
White fence, no stress, a brother who loved her
She'd go to school and all the kids would say
If you're black then where's your color?
Oh, the ups and downs of being a biracial woman
But don't you get down
Cause you were created especially
You were meant to be
And I like to think he spent a little extra time on me
A little older, little taller, waste smaller
Long hair, don't care, curls up with water
Baby girl what's your name and your number?
Where are you from? Skin glowing from the summer
Are you Mexican? Or Brazilian? Puerto Rican?
You gotta tell me
Oh... that's it?
Oh, the ups and downs of being a biracial woman
But don't you get down
Cause you were created especially
You were meant to be
And I like to think he spent a little extra time on me
Fine, oh you'll be fine
Pretty little girl just spend some time
You'll be this way for the rest of your life
Oh, the ups and downs of being a biracial woman
But don't you get down
Cause you were created especially
You were meant to be
And I like to think he spent a little extra time on me
On me
But don't you get down
Cause you were created especially
You were meant to be
And I like to think he spent a little extra time on me
