With blisters on her feet she walked the road each day[00:00:07]
Montgomery Alabama '55[00:00:14]
Singing "Justice is going to flow down like a river[00:00:21]
Our children would no longer be deprived"[00:00:28]
Rosa's heart was heavy but she would never cry[00:00:36]
For her people she would stand and hold the line[00:00:43]
Armed with the power of songs and simply dignity[00:00:50]
She swore "The voice that would surrender won't be mine"[00:00:57]
Woman singing a freedom song [00:01:05]
Woman showing us the way[00:01:12]
Rosa never took that bus but walked on through the rain[00:01:19]
She prayed for the power to make her stand alone[00:01:27]
Soon voices filled the streets from the county's back rooms[00:01:34]
Spirits raised by the courage of just one[00:01:41]
Rosa Parks had a dream and it lifted her[00:01:49]
Of simply how much better life could be[00:01:56]
She lit the flame and the fire is still burning[00:02:03]
Inside every heart that's longing to be free[00:02:10]
Woman singing a freedom song [00:02:18]
Woman showing us the way[00:02:25]
Woman singing a freedom song [00:02:32]
I'd love to hear that voice today[00:02:39]
With blisters on her feet she moved from place to place[00:02:59]
Outside Dublin city '81[00:03:06]
Sick and tired of being a stranger in her own home[00:03:12]
Where others had their comforts she had none[00:03:20]
They gave Nan Joyce's people 48 hours[00:03:27]
To leave with their belongings once againg[00:03:35]
But Nan Joyce had seen enough of these evictions[00:03:42]
She dreaded facing the winter's wind and rain[00:03:49]
Woman singing a freedom song [00:03:57]
Woman showing us the way[00:04:04]
All her life Nan faced fear and ignorance[00:04:12]
Saw her loved ones turned away from countless doors[00:04:18]
With ancient songs and tales around the warm fire[00:04:26]
Spirits raised by the wealth of the travellers lore[00:04:33]
Nan Joyce had a dream and it lifted her[00:04:41]
She stood her ground and held her head on high[00:04:48]
She found her voice and spoke out[00:04:55]
So her children could be loved[00:04:58]
As Irish brothers and sisters by and by[00:05:02]
Woman singing a freedom song [00:05:10]
Woman showing us the way[00:05:17]
Woman singing a freedom song [00:05:25]
I'd love to hear that voice today[00:05:32]
