Martin Luther King Suite:
Why? (the king of love is dead)
by Gene Taylor
recorded by Nina Simone, 1967
Once upon this planet earth,
Lived a man of humble birth,
Preaching love and freedom for his fellow man,
He was dreaming of a day,
Peace would come to earth to stay,
And he spread this message all across the land.
Turn the other cheek he
Love thy neighbor was his creed,
Pain humiliation death, he did not dread
With his Bible at his side,
From his foes he did not hide it
Will the murders never cease,
Are thy men or are they beasts?
What do they ever hope, ever hope to gain?
Will my country fall, stand or fall?
Is it too late for us all?
And did Martin Luther King just die in vain?
Cos he
And he knew he could not stop,
Always living with the threat of death ahead.
Folks you
Cos we
What will happen now that he is dead?
He was for equality,
For all people you and me,
Full of love and good will, hate was not his way.
He was not a violent man.
Tell me folks if you can,
Just why, why was he shot down the other day?
Well see he
And he knew he could not stop,
Always living with the threat of death ahead.
Folks you
For we
What

Tabacco: I consider myself both a funnel and a filter. I funnel information, not readily available on the Mass Media, which is ignored and/or suppressed. I filter out the irrelevancies and trivialities to save both the time and effort of my Readers and bring consternation to the enemies of Truth & Fairness! When you read Tabacco, if you don’t learn something NEW, I’ve wasted your time.
In 1981's 'Body Heat', Kathleen Turner said, "Knowledge is power".
