What If I Was White Lyrics

[Chorus: Eminem]
What if he was white? What if he was white?
What if he was white? What, if, he, white?
What if he was white? What if he was
White, white, white, white, white
White, white, white, white, white?
What if he was white? What if he was white?
What if he was white? What, if, he, white?
What if he was white? What if he was
White, white, white, white, white
White, white, white, white, white?

[Verse 2: Sticky Fingaz, Eminem]
If I was white, it'd be a different world for me
If I was white, hm? What shade would I be?
Would I be Redneck or Skinhead, preppy or high class?
You'd probably live in a trailer park and be white trash!
In any case, that be the ill shit right?
But there's a good and bad side of being white
You can't say the N-word without starting a fight (What's up, my nig​ger?)
Couldn't dance to a beat, I'd have two left feet
Even if I was white, probably still have a ghetto shit (How you doing?)
Is it a myth or do I really have a little dick? (Nah, it's true!)
If I was white, I would probably listen to hard rock
And cover my ears whenever I heard Hip Hop

[Chorus: Eminem]
What if he was white? What if he was white?
What if he was white? What, if, he, white?
What if he was white? What if he was
White, white, white, white, white
White, white, white, white, white?
What if he was white? What if he was white?
What if he was white? What, if, he, white?
What if he was white? What if he was
White, white, white, white, white
White, white, white, white, white?

[Verse 3: Sticky Fingaz (Eminem)]
If I was white I’d probably wouldn't even think the same
I'd watch Tennis and Golf and bet on Hockey games (Red Wings, man)
Wear suit and ties and go to work everyday
If I was white I couldn't live around my way
And there probably would of never even been an Onyx, shit
I be somewhere sipping Vodka and Tonix
Smoking on a Marlboro instead of a Newport
I'd live in Long Island instead of New York
If I was white, I probably couldn't dunk
'Cause everybody knows White Man Can't Jump (Nope!)
And probably wouldn't be able to go to the weed spot
'Cause all of the dreads would think I'm a cop
[Chorus: Eminem]
What if he was white? What if he was white?
What if he was white? What, if, he, white?
What if he was white? What if he was
White, white, white, white, white
White, white, white, white, white?
What if he was white? What if he was white?
What if he was white? What, if, he, white?
What if he was white? What if he was
White, white, white, white, white
White, white, white, white, white?

[Outro: Eminem]
Yo, what if I was white?

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
