    This was written in the 50's after the Brown v Board of Education decision that was intended to abolish segregation in schools. In the 70s this was still relevant since actual de-segregation primarily in the form of busing was being implemented with a lot of resistance. A beautiful song in its own right but the context makes it even more special

      Because there's ego and pride on either side. No need to know enough to accurately guess that you the man is black and she is white, or hispanic, or asian, or any other female race. There's more to it than just race, but because it's easy to play the victim the former is the easiest way to portray that.

    This song reminds me of being in the car with my mom in the early 70s listening to AM radio. It seemed so many songs at the time had nursery rhyme like qualities. Besides this one I think of Clint Holmes "Playground In My Mind" and Carpenters "Sing A Song". Maybe having songs so easy to sing along to helped to turn me into the music fan I became. As far as the subject matter of this, yes targeted more to adults.
    As young as I was I already took the subject matter for granted I didn't need to learn it from a song. I feel like you are born knowing this and only the culture or your environment can make you think anything different.

    The song was older than the band Three Dog Night. It was written on 1954 to celebrate the decision by the Supreme Court in the Brown versus Board of Education case. When Three Dog Night put the song out in 1972 they were in the midst of acting on that decision and were integrating the schools around the country.

    The first time I heard this beautiful song was on Top Of The Pops by Greyhound in 1971. It was good then and still is good now.

    I was 13 when this song was a hit in 1972. It was only 3 years earlier, when I was 10 and in 5th grade, that schools where I lived (and in much of the country, particularly in the South), were desgregated. So, at the time this song was popular, black and white kids had spent most of their lives in a segregated world, and what seems perfectly normal now, was somewhat of an adjustment then for much of America. While there is still work to be done, we sure have come a long, long way, and that's why this song was popular and so relevant in 1972.

    I remember my music teacher in 5th grade teaching us this song for spring choir show, she was African-American. As we sang this for our Greatest Generation and Silent Generation parents you could see the amazement and some barely concealed hate by them. They were expecting some song like Mister Sandman or other fluffy music.

    This song was Three Dog Night's third and last #1 hit on the Billboard Hot 100 during the summer of 1972. It spent three weeks at the #1 spot. By the way, this song is not a lullaby song. A great song indeed!!!

    Eli's Coming. Live version.... you have to check that out! TDN was a great staple of the late 60's/ 70's. My mom had all their albums. That's what I grew up listening to.

    One of my fav songs. My pic won!! Been waiting for this. In the video, they show the drummer is African American. Diversity in musicians, well, we don't care.

    Very specific memory with this song. I was a sophomore and I rode to school with my neighbor. This was playing when we pulled in to school. The paper and ink line was playing.

    This song landed when I was a little kid. I remember hearing it on the radio. The song celebrates public school desegregation, which actually began in earnest in early the seventies. Three Dog Night is an excellent choice of adult music to share with young children. "Joy To The World" (aka "Jeremiah was a Bullfrog") was another one of their songs from back then that I remember digging. For more such "kids fare", also check out The Beatles "Yellow Submarine", "Octopuses Garden", "Rocky Racoon", and "Here Comes The Sun".

    Heh, our elementary school music teacher was pretty hip! (around '72 - '74) We sang this song, as well as others, like "One Tin Soldier".
