Medgar Evers Lullaby 歌詞
Medgar Evers Lullaby - Judy Collins
Bye bye my baby I'll rock you to sleep
Sing you a sad song it might make you weep
Your Daddy is dead and he'll never come back
And the reason they killed him
Because he was black
I'll tell you a story that you ought to know
It happened in our town a short while ago
Your Daddy was walking alone for some ai
And a man in the bushes was waiting right there
That man killed your Daddy and laughed while he died
Your Daddy lay dying with tears in his eyes
He cried for the things that a man leaves undone
And he cried for the dreams that he had for his son
What will you do son when you are a man
Will you learn to live lonely and hate all you can
Will you try to be happy and try not to see
That all men are slaves till their brothers are free
Bye bye my baby I'll rock you to sleep
Sing you a sad song it might make you weep
Your Daddy is dead and he'll never come back
And the reason they killed him
Because he was black
