I Shall Overcome |
New day dawning, I wonder what it holds for me, |
Sun is shining, I Don’t think that it will shine on me |
I look around, nothing seems to have changed, |
This dirty town, it hasn’t some how rearranged |
And I stand up, but I get knocked straight back down, |
«Just give it up"they say, «We just don’t want you around |
Not one of us, and we don’t like to share.» |
Mouthful of dust, but I’ll get even I swear… |
I hear your voice, call my name, but in my heart, It’s still pouring rain, |
And it ain’t pretty, no it ain’t pretty… |
But you say «Hold on, hold on… believe me, |
All the plans against you one by one, will come undone.» |
I shall overcome. |
Through my tears, I try to see your face, |
But doubt and fear come calling, and crowd my head with words of hate, |
I scream out please! |
Don’t leave me hear alone, |
Down on my knees, without you and without hope… |
I hear your voice, call my name, but in my heart, It’s still pouring rain, |
And it ain’t pretty, no it ain’t pretty… |
But you say «Hold on, hold on… believe me, |
Love is here and I won’t let you down, stand your ground. |
Hold on, hold on… It’s easy, |
All the plans against you one by one, will come undone.» |
I know I shall overcome. |
Just in time you call my name, pull myself up, to fight again. |
I’ll never let you down… |
«Hold on, hold on… believe me, |
Love is here and I won’t let you down, stand your ground. |
Hold on, hold on… It’s easy, |
All the plans against you one by one, will come undone.» |
I know I shall overcome. |
