life
Shoe leather apostles step lively
Voting with their feet
Marching to the funky drummer
Marching songs sing themselves to sleep
Let the second line buck dance
To the memory of "WE SHALL OVERCOME"
Protest lives in the voice of two dollar saints
Walking on the Edmund Pettus Bridge
Walking in the name of the Lord
Marching orders handed down
Hand me downs
From yesterday
Wear them shoes today
Keep on walking
Keep on walking.....
