Side by Side

Peace, it don't come easy
 Love, it don't come free
 Martin Luther King said
 Lord, I have a Dream
 Boys and girls of every
 Color walking side by side
 Brother, sister, come on
 Turn that darkness into light
 I was born into the
 Heart of Dixie Land
 Holy-rollers in the
 Hills of Birmingham
 All those summers spent just
 Chasing lightning bugs by night
 Heavy stillness in the
 Heat of August & July
 Lord, a wind was stirring
 From the east to west
 Set my heart a-blazing
 Deep down in my chest
 And I heard that preacher
 Crying out from 16th street
 "Till we all have freedom
 There is no man truly free"
 On into September
 Heard the people say
 "Things just won't get better"
 Four girls died today
 But we will rise up singing
 Truly, We Shall Overcome
 And we won't quit singing
 Till that day of glory comes
 Peace, it don't come easy
 Love, it don't come free
 Martin Luther King said
 Lord, I have a Dream
 Boys and girls of every
 Color walking side by side
 Brother, sister, come on
 Turn that darkness into light
 Brother, sister, come on
 Turn that darkness into light
 And we shall overcome one day
 We shall overcome
 Deep in my heart I do believe
 One day we shall overcome
