Luyện nghe bài hát Jackie Robinson

Luther Jackson lived in the apartment above me.
We cigarettes on the stairs, tell me stories that the white boys never hear.
when he found this sign, he moved North in 1949.
On his 10th birthday took him to town to the Jackie Robinson play.
It was a picture perfect day, in the and the hate.
He didnt understand why all those would say such awful things.
His daddy pay no attention 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 went to law school in 1963.
In the summer he worked in Alabama with Martin Luther King.
He met a girl on a summer night; he fell when they saw each others eyes.
There were people in town that really didnt like 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 Luther beat him down. He looked him in the eye, spit in his and turned and walked away.
He knew he was than all the hate!
He knew he was bigger all the pain!
He knew that theres a time to fight and a to walk away!
He knew until he changed the rules, ohh yeah they beat em at the game!
He never did that feeling inside.
You could hear it in his voice; you see it in his eyes.
moved out West to live, when his wife passed away.
He lives right 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 House, a thing he never thought hed see.
Even though he never cried, I could see in his eyes.
He had dreamed this moment, every single day of his life.
Luther died that night in his sleep, but he lived long enough to see,
America become the kind of place he wanted it to be.
He you could never forget the day, that we beat em at the wrong game!
Yeah just like Jackie Robinson. (Just Jackie Robinson!)
Gotta be bigger than all the hate! (Just Jackie Robinson!)
Gotta be than all the pain! (Just like Jackie Robinson!)
Gotta find a better way! (Just Jackie Robinson!)
Gotta em at the wrong game! (Just like Jackie Robinson!)
Gotta em at the wrong game! (Just like Jackie Robinson!)
beat em at the wrong game! (Just like Jackie Robinson!)
(Just like Robinson!)
