Kirk Whalum - We Shall Overcome You Lyrics



Kirk Whalum - We Shall Overcome You Lyrics




Lala lala la la la, nana nana na na na
Lala lala la la la, mmm
Nana nana na na na, lala lala la la la
Lala lala la la la la

Armed with the most powerful weapon
That age-old four letter word
We'll prove we learned our lessons
And manifest the truth we heard

We don't want your thoughts and prayers
We resent your mocking stares
If our cause is just, then why scoff?
There's a chance you'll just have to die off

We shall overcome you
Get that through your head
We shall overcome you
Long after we are dead

We shall overcome you
But try not to become you
We shall overcome you
We call BS instead

Lala lala la la la, nana nana na na na
Lala lala la la la, mmm
Nana nana na na na, lala lala la la la
Lala lala la la la la

Someday, one day was yesterday
So right now we're demanding that you pay
The debt you owe the outcast
Whose only hope was to outlast
What Martin spoke has now come true
We're sick and tired of you
And you know what?
A child shall lead them

We shall overcome you
Get that through your head
We shall overcome you
Long after we are

We shall overcome you
But try not to become you
We shall overcome you
We call BS instead

Lala lala la la la, nana nana na na na
Lala lala la la la, mmm
Nana nana na na na, lala lala la la la
Lala lala la la la la

We shall overcome
We shall overcome you
We shall overcome

We shall overcome
We shall overcome you
We shall overcome

We shall overcome (Lala lala la la la)
We shall overcome you (Nana nana na na na)
We shall overcome (Lala lala la la la, mmm)

We shall overcome (Nana nana na na na)
We shall overcome you (Lala lala la la la)
We shall overcome (Lala lala la la la la)
