Freedom Riders Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Jackson, Mississippi, is a mighty white town
White folks they like to keep the black folks down
They think they'll be alright, there's gonna be a fight
And they'll have to share their freedom crown
They'll have to share their freedom crown

[Chorus]
Freedom riders roll along
Freedom riders won't be long
Won't be long

[Verse 2]
They boarded a bus down in Washington D.C
To enter a state half slave and half free
The wheels hummed a song and they sang along
The song of liberty
The song of liberty

[Chorus]
Freedom riders roll along
Freedom riders won't be long
Won't be long

[Verse 3]
James Farmer was a hard fighting man
Dеcided one day that he'd havе to take a stand
He led them down to a slavery town
But they threw Jim Farmer in the can
Yes, they threw Jim Farmer in the can

[Chorus]
Freedom riders roll along
Freedom riders won't be long
Won't be long

[Verse 4]
One of these days and it won't be long
The solid south is gonna sing another song
They'll understand that every woman and man
Must have all the freedoms of the land
Must have all the freedoms of the land

[Chorus]
Freedom riders roll along
Freedom riders won't be long
Won't be long
Freedom riders roll along
Freedom riders won't be long
Won't be long
Won't be long
Won't be long
