Oh let us sing
Of Dr. King
Who stood for peace
Who had a dream
Oh let us sing
And learn from him
Open our hearts
And let love in
Oh let us sing
It's what we'll do
Until his dream
One day comes true
Oh let us sing
For Dr. King
A man of peace
Who had a dream
La la la la
La la la la
La la la la
La la la la
La la la la
La la la la
La la la la
La la la la

James Baldwin used his words
To tell us how he felt
To show what made him happy
To say what made him melt
James Baldwin used his words
To say what made him mad
To show us what is broken
To tell us what is bad
James Baldwin used his words
To say what can be changed
To show what can be better
His words they do explain
That you can love a country
That love is what inspires
A person to use words
To lift the country higher
James Baldwin used his words
In stories and in plays
James Baldwin used his words
To show us better ways

No chains could hold her
She's far too strong
No one could stop her
She's good as gone
Once she found freedom
She could have stayed
But she went back
To free more enslaved
Harriet Tubman
Harriet Tubman
Underground
Railroad bound
Listen for
That freedom sound
That freedom sound
She used the stars
She used her ears
She sang in code
As she steered
That freedom train
Bound for Glory
Sing her song
Tell her story
Harriet Tubman
Harriet Tubman
Underground
Railroad bound
Listen for
That freedom sound
That freedom sound
That freedom sound
That freedom sound
That freedom sound

Mae Jemison
Always loved to dance
She did a twirl
And took a big chance
Mae Jemison
Dr. Mae Jemison
She spun towards science
And dreamt of the sky
When Mae said "Space!"
Others said "why?"
Mae Jemison
Dr. Mae Jemison
No one who looked like her
Had ever been to space
The folks in charge
Had thoughts about race
But Mae knew she had the stuff
To be an astronaut
When they said "why?"
Mae said "why not?"
Mae Jemison
Dr. Mae Jemison
Mae Jemison
Dr. Mae Jemison
In a Space Shuttle
Mae danced towards the stars
First Black woman in space!
Next stop mars!
Oh! Mae Jemison
Dr. Mae Jemison
Mae Jemison
Dr. Mae Jemison

This
Is the story
Of the great
Major Taylor
Biking champ
Of the world
But his journey
Wasn't easy
His bike was fast
His battle uphill
The great
Major Taylor
His fans were many
So were his foes
For the great
Major Taylor
They said "You can't race"
And "You're out of place"
To the great
Major Taylor
He said "Yes I can"
And "I will win"
Pedal On!
Major Taylor
So he just
Pedaled harder
Past the cheers
And the boos
For the great
Major Taylor
Was too great
To lose!
Pedal On!
Pedal On!
Like the great
Major Taylor
Pedal On!
Pedal On!
Like the great
Major Taylor
