Momma, can I go on the merry-go-round?
Someday child
Someday child
It's the only one in town
Can I go for a ride?
We get on the bus
Sit in the back
Where's the horse
For a kid that's black?
Can I go on the merry-go-round?
Momma, can I go for a ride?
I can't help but wonder
When I will be allowed?
Will another summer come and go?
The carousel keeps turning 'round
An I just want to know?
Can I go on the merry-go-round?

Momma, can I go for a ride?
Last night I was dreaming
Riding on the carousel
And kids all over Baltimore
They were riding as well
Can I go on the merry-go-round?
