[00:29.87] Hey!
[00:32.16] I can't see why people look at me
[00:34.65] They only see the color of my face
[00:37.44] Oh, yeah, then there's those that try to help, God knows
[00:41.08] But always have to put me in my place
[00:44.51] But I won't ask you to be color-blind
[00:47.25] 'Cause if you pick the fruit then, girl, you're sure to find
[00:50.97] The blacker the berry, the sweeter the juice
[00:54.03] I could say it ain't so, but darlin', what's the use?
[00:57.46] The darker the chocolate, the richer the taste
[01:00.45] And that's where it's at
[01:02.44] Now, baby, run and tell that
[01:04.73] Now run and tell that
[01:06.37] Run and tell that
[01:07.76] Run and tell that
[01:09.71] Hey, yeah!
[01:10.20] I can't see why people disagree
[01:12.94] Each time I tell 'em what I know is true, oh, no
[01:16.47] And if you come
[01:17.62] And see the world I'm from
[01:19.16] I bet your heart is gonna feel it, too, yeah
[01:22.64] I could lie, but baby, let's be bold
[01:25.93] Vanilla can be nice
[01:27.07] But if the truth be told
[01:29.68] Blacker the berry, the sweeter the juice
[01:32.37] I could say it ain't so, but darlin', what's the use?
[01:35.65] The darker the chocolate, the richer the taste
[01:38.64] And that's where it's at
[01:40.33] Oh, baby, baby, run and tell that
[01:42.92] Run and tell that
[01:44.36] Go run and tell that
[01:45.95] Run and tell that
[01:47.15] Come on and run and tell that
[01:49.44] Run and tell that
[01:50.21] Hey, run and tell
[01:51.88] Go tell
[01:53.37] Run and tell that
[01:57.15] Hey!
[01:58.89] Yeah, yeah, yeah!
[02:02.83] Hey, whoo!
[02:08.98] Come here, girl
[02:10.01] This is my sister, little Inez
[02:12.24] Oh, I know Tracy Turnblad
[02:13.66] Good for you, girl, you got on the show
[02:15.23] -Well, you better be next -Ya got that right -
[02:17.02] Oh, you know she is, you better show 'em, girl
[02:20.77] I'm tired of converin' up all my pride
[02:23.76] So give me five on the black hand side
[02:26.45] I got a new wat of movin' and I got my own voice
[02:30.08] So how can I help but to shout and rejoice
[02:33.07] Oh, the people 'round here can barely pay their rent
[02:36.35] They try to make a dollar outta fifteen cent
[02:39.78] But we got a spirit money just can't buy
[02:43.14] It's deep as a river and soars to the sky, to the sky!
[02:47.95] Hey, I can't see the reason it can't be
[02:50.28] The kinda world where we all get our chance
[02:53.07] Ah, yeah
[02:54.07] The time is now
[02:55.16] So we can show 'em how just turn the music up
[02:58.07] And let's all dance, yeah, yeah
[03:00.34] 'Cause all things are equal when it comes to love
[03:03.17] Well, that ain't quite true, 'cause when push comes to shove
[03:06.66] The blacker the berry, the sweeter the juice
[03:09.45] I could say it ain't so, but darlin', what's the use?
[03:13.37] The darker the chocolate, the richer the taste
[03:16.51] And that's where it's at
[03:17.96] Now, baby, baby, baby, run and tell that
[03:21.20] Run and tell that
[03:22.14] Run and tell that
[03:24.33] Ah, yeah, baby, run and tell that
[03:25.87] Go run and tell that
[03:27.12] G-g-g-g-go and run and tell that
[03:33.29] Yeah, yeah!
