Luyện nghe bài hát Paul Robeson

You can wreck my name, vilify me, me on the rack
But I won't bow to any man, be he white or be he black
Take away my passport, to let me travel
But I will not get on my knees,
You're never gonna me grovel
There's a lot more to democracy than a vote
I'm the equal of any man, free my people, let them go
These chains around my body are never gonna me
And I refuse to be a in my own country
The great are only great 'cause we're down on our
up, my brothers and sisters, we were born to be free
Born to be

You can me a traitor but I love my country
And I will not sell out it because of hypocrisy
I refuse to behind the Fifth, I've no fear of honesty
You always know exactly where I am, so why don't you
Come on over and get me
You can tap my phone but there's one you will never hear
'Cause the of freedom wasn't meant for your slaves' ears
I'll never my back on my comrades and my friends
The and the dispossessed, the women and the men
The great are only great 'cause we're down on our
Rise up, my brothers and sisters, we were to be free
Born to be

I stand here struggling for the rights of my people to be full citizens in this and they are not!

Close your halls to stop me
Close minds to stop me speakin'
Close your to stop me eatin'
Close your hotels to stop me
But I'll never turn my back on my and my friends
The poor and the dispossessed, the and the men
The great are great 'cause we're down on our knees
Rise up, my brothers and sisters, we were born to be
Born to be

chains around my body are never gonna hold me
And I refuse to be a in my own country
The great are great 'cause we're down on our knees
Rise up, my brothers and sisters, we were to be free
Born to be

I am born and bred in this America of ours. I to love it, but we must have the courage
to shout at the top of our about our injustices, and we must lay the blame right where
it has belonged for over three hundred years of slavery and misery - right on our own doorstep.

My was a slave, and my people died to build this country, and I'm going to stay here and
a part of it just like you! And no facist-minded people will drive me from it--is that clear?
