Luyện nghe bài hát Jackie Robinson

Luther Green lived in the apartment above me.
We smoked cigarettes on the stairs, me stories that the white boys never hear.
when he found this sign, he moved North in 1949.
On his birthday daddy took him to town to the Jackie Robinson play.
It was a perfect day, in the sunshine and the hate.
He didnt understand why all those people would say awful things.
His daddy said pay no to them, turnaround and watch the man play.
The one black man in the field was better in every way.
My daddy said if you wanna win in this world, you gotta em at the wrong game.
Luther Jackson Green went to law in 1963.
In the summer between he worked in with Martin Luther King.
He met a girl on a summer night; he fell hard when saw each others eyes.
There were people in town that really like that he was black and she was white.
They found her in the ditch, a little outside of town; some stupid man was about it,
so Luther beat him down. He looked him in the eye, in his face and turned and walked away.
He knew he was than all the hate!
He knew he was than all the pain!
He knew that theres a to fight and a time to walk away!
He knew until he changed the rules, ohh yeah they em at the wrong game!
He never did lose feeling inside.
You could it in his voice; you could see it in his eyes.
Luther out West to live, when his wife passed away.
He lives right next door to his son, so he can watch his play.
Jackson Green, watched election night with me.
We put a black man in the House, a thing he never thought hed see.
Even he never cried, I could see tears in his eyes.
He had dreamed about this moment, single day of his life.
Yeah Luther died that night in his sleep, but he long enough to see,
America the kind of place he always wanted it to be.
He you could never forget the day, that we beat em at the wrong game!
