Текст песни Paul McCartney and Stevie Wonder - Ebony And Ivory

(Stevie lead vocals marked by [...])

Ebony and Ivory {live together in perfect harmony,
Side by side on my piano keyboard, oh Lord, why don't we?}

We all know that people are the same whe-erever you go -
There is good and bad in everyone.
[And we learn to live, we learn to give each other
What we need to survive together ali-i-ive].

[Ebony and Ivory] {live together in perfect harmony,
Side by side on my piano keyboard, oh Lord, why don't we?}

(Keyboards solo)

{Ebony, Ivory living in perfect harmony,
Ebony, Ivory, ooh-ooh-uh}

[We all know that] {people are the same whe-erever you go} -
[There is good and bad (mm-mm) in e-everyone].

We learn to live when we learn to give each other
(Ooh-ooh-, uh-uh-uh-),
What we need to survive {together ali-ve}
(Ooh-ooh-).

Ebony and Ivory {live together in perfect harmony,
Side by side on my piano keyboard, oh Lord, why don't we?
Side by side on my piano keyboard, oh Lord,
Why don't we-ee-ee-ee, ee-ee-ee?}

(Keyboards solo)
