Luyện nghe bài hát The Death of Emmett Till

Was down in Mississippi not so ago
a young boy from Chicago town
Walked in a door

This fateful tragedy
You all remember well
The of his skin was black
And his name was Till

Some men, they him to a barn
And there beat him up
said they had a reason
But what

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

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

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

And then to stop the United
Of for a trial
Two brothers, they
That they had killed poor Emmett

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

I saw the papers
But I not bear
To see brothers
down the courthouse stairs

For the found them innocent
And the brothers, they free
Emmett's body floats the foam
Of a Jim Crow sea

If you can't speak out against this of thing
A crime that's so
Your eyes are filled with men's clay
Your ears must be filled with

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

This song is just a
To remind fellow man
That this kind of thing still lives
In that Ku Klux Klan

But if all of us folks that alike
If we gave all we could
We could this great land of ours
A greater place to
