《Medgar Evers Lullaby》歌词

[00:00:01] Medgar Evers Lullaby - Judy Collins

[00:00:26] Bye bye my baby I'll rock you to sleep

[00:00:33] Sing you a sad song it might make you weep

[00:00:39] Your Daddy is dead and he'll never come back

[00:00:46] And the reason they killed him

[00:00:50] Because he was black

[00:01:00] I'll tell you a story that you ought to know

[00:01:07] It happened in our town a short while ago

[00:01:13] Your Daddy was walking alone for some ai

[00:01:20] And a man in the bushes was waiting right there

[00:01:34] That man killed your Daddy and laughed while he died

[00:01:41] Your Daddy lay dying with tears in his eyes

[00:01:47] He cried for the things that a man leaves undone

[00:01:55] And he cried for the dreams that he had for his son

[00:02:10] What will you do son when you are a man

[00:02:15] Will you learn to live lonely and hate all you can

[00:02:22] Will you try to be happy and try not to see

[00:02:30] That all men are slaves till their brothers are free

[00:02:57] Bye bye my baby I'll rock you to sleep

[00:03:04] Sing you a sad song it might make you weep

[00:03:10] Your Daddy is dead and he'll never come back

[00:03:18] And the reason they killed him

[00:03:23] Because he was black
