Luther Jackson lived in the apartment above me.
We smoked cigarettes on the stairs, tell me that the white boys never hear.
Like when he found this sign, he North in 1949.
On his 10th birthday daddy took him to town to the 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 baseball was better in every way.
My daddy said if you wanna win in this world, you gotta beat em at the game.
Luther Jackson Green to law school in 1963.
In the summer between he worked in Alabama with Luther King.
He met a girl on a summer he fell hard when they saw each others eyes.
There were people in town that really didnt that he was black and she was white.
found her in the ditch, a little outside of town; some stupid man was blastin about it,
so Luther beat him down. He looked him in the eye, spit in his face and turned and away.
He he was better than all the hate!
He he was bigger than all the pain!
He knew that theres a time to and a time to walk away!
He knew until he changed the rules, ohh yeah beat em at the wrong game!
He never did that feeling inside.
You could hear it in his you could see it in his eyes.
Luther moved out West to live, when his passed away.
He lives next door to his son, so he can watch his grandchild play.
Luther Green, watched election night with me.
We put a black man in the White House, a thing he thought hed see.
though he never cried, I could see tears in his eyes.
He had dreamed about moment, every single day of his life.
Yeah Luther died that night in his sleep, but he lived long to see,
become the kind of place he always wanted it to be.
He said you could never forget the day, that we em at the wrong game!
