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
