Tyler
Appeal to the governor
Of Louisiana
You may get an answer
The process is slow
Federal court won't
Do much to help him
It's been forty years
And they've just let him go
Tyler is guilty
A white judge has said so
What right do we have
To say it's not so
Tyler is guilty
A white judge has said so
What right do we have
To say it's not so
Testify under pressure
A racist jury
Government lawyers
It's all for show
With rows of white faces
False accusations
He's framed up for murder
They've just let him go
Tyler is guilty
A white judge has said so
What right do we have
To say it's not so
Tyler is guilty
A white judge has said so
What right do we have
To say it's not so
Police gun was planted
No matching bullets
No prints on the handle
No proof to show
But Tyler, is guilty
A white judge has said so
They showed him no mercy
They've just let him go
Tyler is guilty
A white judge has said so
What right do we have
To say it's not so
Tyler is guilty
A white judge has said so
What right do we have
To say it's not so
Tyler is guilty
A white judge has said so
What right do we have
To say it's not so
Tyler
Is guilty
A white judges has said so
They showed him no mercy
They've just let him go
Of Louisiana
You may get an answer
The process is slow
Federal court won't
Do much to help him
It's been forty years
And they've just let him go
Tyler is guilty
A white judge has said so
What right do we have
To say it's not so
Tyler is guilty
A white judge has said so
What right do we have
To say it's not so
