Kris Kristofferson - Jesse Jackson lyrics

He was walking with your brother on the streets of alabama He was marching next to martin when he died Working face to face in cuba and managua nicaragua He did not yet beat the devil, but he tried Chorus: Hold on brother, jesse jackson There's a better world a'coming Where a man can hope a man will show some heart You just keep right on believing In the better side of human They ain't ready for it yet, but it's a start And you move'em when you hit'em in the heart We must bring it all together we must start right from the bottom Back to helping one another when we can 'cause if he's hungry and he's human and he's fighting for his freedom Then he shouldn't be too hard to understand Chorus: Hold on brother, jesse jackson There's a better world a'coming Where a man can hope a man will show some heart You just keep right on believing In the better side of human They ain't ready for you yet, but it's a start And you move'em when you hit'em in the heart Chorus: Hold on brother, jesse jackson There's a better world a'coming Where a man can hope a man will show some heart You just keep right on believing In the better side of human They ain't ready for you yet, but it's a start And you move'em when you hit'em in the heart
