Luyện nghe bài hát The Death of Emmett Till

Was down in Mississippi not so ago
When a boy from Chicago town
Walked in a Southern

This boy's tragedy
You all remember well
The color of his skin was
And his was Emmett Till

Some men, dragged him to a barn
And there they him up
They they had a reason
But what

tortured him and did some things
Too evil to
were screaming sounds inside the barn
There was laughing out on the street

Then they rolled his body a gulf
Amidst a blood red
And they him in the waters wide
To cease his screaming

The reason that they him there
And I'm a-sure, it no lie
'Cause he was born in barn
He was to die

And then to the United States
Of yelling for a
Two brothers, confessed
That they had killed Emmett Till

But on the jury were men
Who had helped the commit this awful crime
And so this was a mockery
But there seemed to mind

I saw the morning
But I not bear
To see smiling
Walkin' down the courthouse

For the jury them innocent
And the brothers, they went
While Emmett's body floats the
Of a Jim southern sea

If you can't speak out against this kind of
A crime so unjust
Your eyes are filled dead men's clay
Your ears must be filled dust

arms and legs
They be in shackles and chains
And your mind, it cease to flow
For you to let our human
Fall down so low

song is just a reminder
To remind your man
That kind of thing still lives today
In ghost-robed Ku Klux Klan

But if all of us folks that alike
If we gave all we give
We make this great land of ours
A place to live
