There was a man, voice of the people
Standing on the balcony, of the Loraine Motel
Shots rang out, yes, it was a gun
He was the only one to fall down, ya'll
That ain't right, then his people screamed

Ain't no need for sunlight! (Ain't no need for sunlight)
Ain't no need for moonlight! (Ain't no need for moonlight)
Ain't no need for streetlight (ain't no need for streetlight)
It's burning really bright (real bright)
Some folks say we gonna fight (gonna fight)
'Cause this here thing just ain't right (ain't right)

Young man coming out of a liquor store
With three pieces of black liquorice in his hand, ya'll
Mister policeman thought it was a gun, thought he was the one
Shot him down, ya'll, that ain't right
