I have a dream
This vision, mine to save the world
If they hadn't killed him so easily
California to New York
His words inspired many
Weary sorrowful people to live again
We ain't what we ought to be, we ain't what we wanna be
And we ain't what we're gonna be, but thank God we ain't what we was!
So dark is my prison
Yet I still hear his final words
It's a haven of freedom and unity
Sing, brothers and sisters
Have you got something that you've got
So you can live again?
"We shall not be moved."
We ain't what we ought to be, we ain't what we wanna be
And we ain't what we're gonna be, but thank God we ain't what we was!
We ain't what we ought to be, we ain't what we wanna be
And we ain't what we're gonna be, but thank God we ain't what we was!
I have a dream
This vision, mine to save the world
If they hadn't killed him so easily
Sing, brothers and sisters
Have you got something that you've got
So you can live again?
"We shall not be moved...
We shall not be moved...
We shall not be moved."
