Birmingham Sunday - Joan Baez (琼·贝兹)[00:00:00]

Written by：Lorenz Hart/Richard Rodgers [00:00:00]

Come round by my side and I'll sing you a song[00:00:00]

I'll sing it so softly it'll do no one wrong[00:00:06]

On birmingham Sunday the blood ran like wine[00:00:13]

And the choirs kept singing of freedom[00:00:19]

That cold autumn morning no eyes saw the sun[00:00:30]

And Addie Mae Collins her number was one[00:00:36]

At an old baptist church there was no need to run[00:00:42]

And the choirs kept singing of freedom[00:00:49]

The clouds they were grey and the autumn winds blew[00:00:58]

And Denise McNair brought the number to two[00:01:04]

The falcon of death was a creature they knew[00:01:10]

And the choirs kept singing of freedom[00:01:17]

The church it was crowded but no one could see[00:01:27]

That Cynthia Wesley's dark number was three[00:01:33]

Her prayers and her feelings would shame you and me[00:01:40]

And the choirs kept singing of freedom[00:01:47]

Young Carol Robertson entered the door[00:01:58]

And the number her killers had given was four[00:02:03]

She asked for a blessing but asked for no more[00:02:09]

And the choirs kept singing of freedom[00:02:16]

On birmingham Sunday a noise shook the ground[00:02:26]

And people all over the earth turned around[00:02:32]

For no one recalled a more cowardly sound[00:02:39]

And the choirs kept singing of freedom[00:02:46]

The men in the forest they once asked of me[00:02:57]

How many black berries grew in the blue sea[00:03:04]

I asked them right back with a tear in my eye[00:03:11]

How many dark ships in the forest[00:03:18]

The Sunday has come and the Sunday has gone[00:03:26]

And I can't do much more than to sing you a song[00:03:32]

I'll sing it so softly it'll do no one wrong[00:03:39]

And the choirs keep singing of freedom[00:03:46]
