When we walked from Marion, AL They shut the lights of Jimmy Lee Jackson down With hardly a penny or gun in hand They lowered his body 'neath the ground Took 45 years to convict the trooper He claimed he felt bad No matter how hard the guilt he felt You can't really take a life someone never had We're on the move now Up from Marion We're on the move now And these truths are marching on When we crossed the bridge to Dallas County We were stared down by John Cloud When there was nothing to discuss He threw tear gas bombs into the crowd You can burn our churches and bomb our homes You can beat and kill our young No mighty army can stop us now Like a grand idea whose time has come We're on the move now From Selma to Montgom' We're on the move now And these truths are marching on Women walked on every continent To make mind and body clear 'Cause the chief was changed to a diaper stain And needs changed again for fear There's a guy reclining for his hard-earned pay Says he don't wanna hear The suburbs act as bubbles of light Where the deaf let the green blind steer We're on the move now Through the District of Colum' We're on the move now And these truths are marching on When he walked the Via Dolorosa And up to Calvary Hill He carried the cross that bought our sins And bled His Father's will When the last dollar bill is spent and gone When the final song is sung I'm gonna scorch the overgrown White House lawn And no alternative fact shall leave my tongue We're on the move now To the land of promise won We're on the move now And these truths are marching on We're on the move now
