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
