Luyện nghe bài hát Jackie Robinson

Luther Green lived in the apartment above me.
We smoked cigarettes on the stairs, tell me stories the white boys never hear.
Like he found this sign, he moved North in 1949.
On his 10th daddy took him to town to the Jackie Robinson play.
It was a perfect day, in the sunshine and the hate.
He understand why all those people would say such awful things.
His daddy said pay no to them, turnaround and watch the man play.
The one black man in the baseball field was in every way.
My daddy if you wanna win in this world, you gotta beat em at the wrong game.
Luther Jackson Green went to law in 1963.
In the summer between he worked in Alabama with Luther King.
He met a girl on a summer night; he fell hard they saw each others eyes.
There were people in that really didnt like that he was black and she was white.
They found her in the ditch, a little of town; some stupid man was blastin about it,
so beat him down. He looked him in the eye, spit in his face and turned and walked away.
He knew he was better all the hate!
He knew he was than all the pain!
He knew that theres a time to fight and a time to away!
He knew until he changed the rules, ohh they beat em at the wrong game!
He did lose that feeling inside.
You hear it in his voice; you could see it in his eyes.
Luther out West to live, when his wife passed away.
He lives next door to his son, so he can watch his grandchild play.
Luther Jackson Green, watched election with me.
We put a black man in the White House, a thing he thought hed see.
Even he never cried, I could see tears in his eyes.
He had about this moment, every single day of his life.
Yeah Luther died night in his sleep, but he lived long enough to see,
America become the kind of place he wanted it to be.
He said you could never forget the day, that we beat em at the game!
