The Penny Candies - Huckleberry Mockingbird (feat. Liawe.) Lyrics

The smell of old books gets me every time
Huckleberry Finn was a favorite of mine
The differences the weight that the story told
Yes I Hold tight To the pages in fright
As I grow Old
Oh, I think I get it now

You told me what you learned from the pages you read
About a mockingbird
The man was soon to be dead
Life's not a fairytale
When good men rot in jail

Tom Robinson was bound to lose
But Atticus was fighting back with words
It's the type of thing you have to do
When you know deep down you've gotta choose what's right
Even if you lose the fight
Even if you lose the fight
Even if you lose the fight
Even if you lose the fight

A little girl to settle down the noise
A little innocence turns men to boys
A little tussle makes a child grow
All too fast
No it don't last
It don't last

And no one gets me quite like Scout does
And no one really gets you like Huckleberry Finn
Yeah you're different than I am
But who gives a damn?

When the fist becomes the teacher
Oh the devil was your father's preacher
No my daddy never raised a hand
He Barely raised his voice

Some things I'll never understand
The blood that runs through veins
Of all man
We're all brothers, We're all sisters
We are
We are
We are!

United we stand
Divided we fall

May the curtains of the heavens open
May the Spirit together unite us all

May the winds and the hailstorms never prevail
But the childrens of the next generation

May the light rest upon our heads
May the heavens reach our souls
To the very depths

Tom Robinson was bound to lose
But Atticus was fighting back with words
It's the type of thing you have to do
When you know deep down you've gotta choose what's right
Even if you lose the fight

My heart beats like a drum oh
Any old fool would
Any only fool would run

Even if we lose the fight
Even if we lose this time
Someday we'll win the war
That Atticus was fighting for
