Medgar Evers Lullaby - Judy Collins[00:00:01]
Bye bye my baby I'll rock you to sleep[00:00:26]
Sing you a sad song it might make you weep[00:00:33]
Your Daddy is dead and he'll never come back[00:00:39]
And the reason they killed him[00:00:46]
Because he was black[00:00:50]
I'll tell you a story that you ought to know[00:01:00]
It happened in our town a short while ago[00:01:07]
Your Daddy was walking alone for some ai[00:01:13]
And a man in the bushes was waiting right there[00:01:20]
That man killed your Daddy and laughed while he died[00:01:34]
Your Daddy lay dying with tears in his eyes[00:01:41]
He cried for the things that a man leaves undone[00:01:47]
And he cried for the dreams that he had for his son[00:01:55]
What will you do son when you are a man[00:02:10]
Will you learn to live lonely and hate all you can[00:02:15]
Will you try to be happy and try not to see[00:02:22]
That all men are slaves till their brothers are free[00:02:30]
Bye bye my baby I'll rock you to sleep[00:02:57]
Sing you a sad song it might make you weep[00:03:04]
Your Daddy is dead and he'll never come back[00:03:10]
And the reason they killed him[00:03:18]
Because he was black[00:03:23]
