歌詞

December 1, 1955 Our freedom movement came alive And because of Sister Rosa you know We don?t ride on the back of the bus no more Sister Rosa she was tired one day After a hard day on her job When all she wanted was a well deserved rest Not a scene from an angry mob A bus driver said, "Lady, you got to get up 'Cause a white person wants that seat" But Miss Rosa said, "No, not no more I?m gonna sit here and rest my feet" Thank you Miss Rosa, you are the spark You started our freedom movement Thank you Sister Rosa Parks Thank you Miss Rosa, you are the spark You started our freedom movement Thank you Sister Rosa Parks Now, the police came without fail And took Sister Rosa off to jail And 14 dollars was her fine Brother Martin Luther King knew it was our time The people of Montgomery sat down to talk It was decided all God's children should walk Until segregation was brought to its knees And we obtain freedom and equality, yeah Thank you Miss Rosa, you are the spark You started our freedom movement Thank you Sister Rosa Parks Thank you Miss Rosa, you are the spark You started our freedom movement Thank you Sister Rosa Parks So we dedicate this song to thee For being the symbol of our dignity Thank you Sister Rosa Thank you Miss Rosa, you are the spark You started our freedom movement Thank you Sister Rosa Parks Thank you Miss Rosa, you are the spark You started our freedom movement Thank you Sister Rosa Parks Thank you Miss Rosa, you are the spark You started our freedom movement Thank you Sister Rosa Parks Thank you Miss Rosa, you are the spark You started our freedom movement Thank you Sister Rosa Parks Thank you Miss Rosa, you are the spark You started our freedom movement Thank you Sister Rosa Parks
