All I remember is part of the chorus:

You are black and I am white
We go together like ice cream and apple pie...  ;D

Still hilarious to this day!

Then there's

You are black and I am white
You are blind as a bat
And I have sight

Side by side, you are my amigo, negro
Let's not fight

You are black and I am white
Life's and Eskimo pie, let's take a bite
That was groovy think'n Lincoln
When you set them free.

We all know, cats are the same
(?)And to (?) Mexico
Good, Bad, Guys and Chicks

I am dark and you are light
You are blind as a bat and I have sight
Side by side you are my amigo, negro
Let's not fight

Ebony and Ivory just living in perfect harmony
We're talk'n salt and pepper, Sammy and Dean,
Stevie and Me are peachy keen

You are white
You are black
And who cares.
