2. From the state of Miz-er-ee ...
... one of the first two states to pass this kind of hateful law, I can sympathize, Stevious.

I will get better ... some day ... at least that's what I keep reminding myself.

4. Excuse me, but
statistically, only three out of four Texans suck. You stay because the remaining 1 out of 4 need you to stand with them.

5. mmm....well, maybe we should remember....
Deep in my heart
I do believe
someday we'll all be free....someday we'll all be free

I may not know,
how long 'twill be
Someday we'll all be free....someday we'll all be free

Hold on my brotha
give me your hand
someday we'll all be free...someday we'll all be free
learnin' to love, we'll find our way

someday we'll all be free...someday we'll all be free
someday we'll all be free

We shall overcome....we shall overcome
We shall overcome someday
Oh...deep in my heart.....I do believe
We shall overcome someday

Deep in my heart...I do believe
Someday we'll all be free...someday we'll all be free
We shall overcome ...someday

---new words and music adaptation by Zilphia Horton, Frank Hamilton, Gay Carawan and Pete Seeger...
