Bob Dylan - They Killed Him lyrics
[Bob Dylan - They Killed Him lyrics]
He would not bow down he would not fight
He knew the deal was down and dirty
And nothing wrong could make it right away
But he knew his duty and the
Prize he had to pay
Just another holy man who tried
To be a friend my God, they killed him
Another man from Atlanta, Georgia
By name of Martin Luther King
He shook the land like the rolling thunder
And made the bells of freedom ring today
With a dream of beauty that
They could not burn away
Just another holy man who dared
To make a stand my God, they killed him
The only Son of God Almighty
The holy one called Jesus Christ
He healed the lame and fed the hungry
And for his love they took his life away
On the road to glory where
The story never ends just the holy Son of
Man we'll never understand
My God, they killed him
There was a man named Mahatma Gandi
A man named Martin Luther King
The only Son of God Almighty
The only one called Jesus Christ
On the road to glory where
The story never ends just the holy Son of
Man we'll never understand
My God, they killed him
There was a man named Mahatma Gandi
A man named Martin Luther King
The only Son of God Almighty
The only one called Jesus Christ
On the road to glory where
The story never ends just the holy Son of
Man we'll never understand
My God, they killed him
