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

boy's fateful tragedy
You all should remember
The color of his was black
And his name was Till

Some men, they dragged him to a
And there beat him up
They said they had a
But what

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

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

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

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

But on the there were men
Who had helped the brothers commit awful crime
And so this was a mockery
But nobody there seemed to

I saw the papers
But I could not
To see smiling
Walkin' down the courthouse

For the jury them innocent
And the brothers, they free
While body floats the foam
Of a Jim Crow sea

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

Your arms and
They must be in shackles and
And your mind, it must to flow
For you to let our race
Fall down so low

This is just a reminder
To remind fellow man
That this kind of thing still today
In that ghost-robed Ku Klan

But if all of us that thinks alike
If we all we could give
We could make this great land of
A greater to live
