[00:17.41]I was down in Mississippi no so long ago
[00:26.73]When a young boy from Chicago town stepped through a Southern door
[00:36.90]This boy's dreadful tragedy I can still remember well
[00:45.33]The color of his skin was black and his name was Emmett Till
[00:57.06]Some men they dragged him to a barn and there they beat him up
[01:06.41]They said they had a reason but I can't remember what
[01:15.37]They tortured him and did some evil things too evil to repeat
[01:24.84]There was screaming sounds inside the barn there was laughing sounds out on the street
[01:35.31]Then they rolled his body down a gulf amidst a bloody red rain
[01:44.53]And they threw him in the waters wide to cease his screaming pain
[01:53.58]The reason that they killed him there and I'm sure it ain't no lie
[02:02.73]Was just for the fun of killin' him and to watch him slowly die
[02:12.05]And then to stop the United States of yelling for a trial
[02:20.99]Two brothers they confessed that they had killed poor Emmett Till
[02:29.77]But on the jury there were men who helped the brothers commit this awful crime
[02:38.96]And so this trial was a mockery but nobody seemed to mind
[02:49.32]I saw the morning papers but I could not bear to see
[02:59.42]The smiling brothers walkin' down the courthouse stairs
[03:07.64]For the jury found them innocent and the brothers they went free
[03:16.64]While Emmett's body floats the foam of a Jim Crow southern sea
[03:27.93]If you can't speak out against this kind of thing a crime that's so unjust
[03:37.17]Your eyes are filled with dead men's dirt your mind is filled with dust
[03:46.24]Your arms and legs they must be in shackles and chains and your blood it must refuse to flow
[03:55.16]For you let this human race fall down so God-awful low
[04:04.27]This song is just a reminder to remind your fellow man
[04:13.16]That this kind of thing still lives today in that ghost-robed Ku Klux Klan
[04:22.26]But if all of us folks that thinks alike if we gave all we could give
[04:31.25]We could make this great land of ours a greater place to live
