Shot On Meredith - J.B. Lenoir
Written by：J.B. Lenoir
June the 6th 1966
They shot James Meredith down just like a dog
June the 6th 1966
They shot James Meredith down just like a dog
Mr President I wonder what are you gonna do now
I don't believe you're gonna do nothing at all
He was marching to mississippi
Lead my peoples what he thought was right
He was marching to mississippi
Lead my peoples what he thought was right
Last I heard of my boy James Meredith
Some evil man shot to take his life
I was looking night degree with this morning
He said I'm had to take a plane
I was looking night degree with this morning
He said I'm had to take a plane
The newspaper man asked what do you think you gonna prove
He said I'm gonna lead the people just like James' murders do
