COAL HOUSE:



GO OUT AND TELL THE STORY.

LET IT ECHO FAR AND WIDE.

MAKE THEM HEAR YOU.

MAKE THEM HEAR YOU.



HOW THAT JUSTICE WAS OUR BATTLE AND HOW JUSTICE WAS DENIED.

MAKE THEM HEAR YOU.

MAKE THEM HEAR YOU.



AND SAY TO THOSE WHO BLAME US

FOR THE WAY WE CHOSE TO FIGHT

THAT SOMETIMES THERE ARE BATTLES

WHICH ARE MORE THAN BLACK OR WHITE.



AND I COULD NOT PUT DOWN MY SWORD

WHEN JUSTICE WAS MY RIGHT.

MAKE THEM HEAR YOU.

MAKE THEM HEAR YOU.



MY PATH MAY LEAD TO HEAVEN OR HELL

AND GOD WILL SAY WHAT'S BEST

BUT ONE THING HE WILL NEVER SAY

IS THAT I WENT QUIETLY TO MY REST.



GO OUT AND TELL OUR STORY

TO YOUR DAUGHTERS AND YOUR SONS.

MAKE THEM HEAR YOU.

MAKE THEM HEAR YOU.



PROCLAIM IT FROM YOUR PULPIT.

IN YOUR CLASSROOM WITH YOUR PEN

TEACH EVERY CHILD TO RAISE HIS VOICE

AND THEN, MY BROTHERS, THEN



WILL JUSTICE BE DEMANDED

BY TEN MILLION RIGHTEOUS MEN.

MAKE THEM HEAR YOU.

WHEN THEY HEAR YOU

I'LL BE NEAR YOU AGAIN.
