@itsstillfriday

I'm quite sure it's from June 1963, the Carnegie Hall Concert.

as a child i was played this song....THINK ITS WHY I TREAT ALL PEOPLE THE SAME(colour religion)... HOW CLEVER THEY ALl ARE..OR NOT

[hoelital]

Does someone know?

Is this not the same melody as in "Mary don't you weep"? I'm sure there are the same harmonies.

[KRESTEN1]

@hoelital You are right :D it's the same melody :)

So many forget that Jews and Whites helped us get what little civil rights we were able to get. we couldn't have done it without them.

[arkalen29]

They should write a new verse now.

Something like

If you miss me at the city jail

you can't find me nowhere

come on over to the White House

I'll be presidin' over there !

[phungbili]

Well, you just wrote it! Good one!

[cheerbabe2684]

[Dasprite222]

I think so! It covers so many important events in one song.
