Luyện nghe bài hát Jackie Robinson

Luther Jackson Green lived in the apartment me.
We smoked cigarettes on the stairs, tell me that the white boys never hear.
Like when he found sign, he moved North in 1949.
On his 10th birthday took him to town to the Jackie Robinson play.
It was a picture day, in the sunshine and the hate.
He didnt understand why all those would say such awful things.
His said pay no attention to them, turnaround and watch the man play.
The one man in the baseball field was better in every way.
My daddy said if you wanna win in this world, you gotta em at the wrong game.
Luther Jackson Green to law school in 1963.
In the summer between he worked in Alabama with Martin King.
He met a girl on a summer night; he hard when they saw each others eyes.
There people in town that really didnt like that he was black and she was white.
They found her in the ditch, a little outside of town; some stupid man was blastin it,
so Luther beat him down. He looked him in the eye, spit in his face and turned and away.
He knew he was than all the hate!
He knew he was than all the pain!
He knew theres a time to fight and a time to walk away!
He knew until he changed the rules, ohh yeah they beat em at the game!
He did lose that feeling inside.
You could hear it in his voice; you see it in his eyes.
Luther moved out West to live, when his passed away.
He lives right door to his son, so he can watch his grandchild play.
Jackson Green, watched election night with me.
We put a black man in the White House, a thing he thought hed see.
though he never cried, I could see tears in his eyes.
He had dreamed this moment, every single day of his life.
Yeah Luther died that night in his sleep, but he lived enough to see,
America become the kind of place he always it to be.
He you could never forget the day, that we beat em at the wrong game!
Yeah just like Jackie Robinson. (Just like Robinson!)

Gotta be better all the pain! (Just like Jackie Robinson!)
Gotta find a better way! (Just like Robinson!)

Gotta beat em at the wrong game! (Just like Robinson!)
Gotta beat em at the wrong game! (Just Jackie Robinson!)
(Just like Robinson!)
