[00:05.49]	Emmylou Harris - My Name Is Emmett Till
[00:13.89]	I was born a black boy
[00:16.58]	My name is Emmett Till
[00:19.08]
[00:20.40]	Walked this earth for 14 years
[00:24.02]	One night I was killed
[00:28.54]	For speaking to a woman
[00:31.73]	Whose skin was white as dough
[00:35.17]	That's a sin in Mississippi
[00:39.61]	But how was I to know?
[00:41.73]
[00:42.98]	I come down from Chicago
[00:45.55]
[00:46.36]	To visit with my kin
[00:49.86]	There I was a cheeky kid
[00:52.80]	I guess I always been
[00:57.17]	But the harm they put upon me
[01:00.55]	Was too hard for what I done
[01:03.80]	For I was just a black boy
[01:07.99]	I never hurt no one
[01:12.49]	Oh oh oh oh oh oh ...
[01:21.36]
[01:25.68]	They took me from my uncle's house
[01:29.43]	Mose Wright was his name
[01:31.93]	He'd be later standing without hesitation
[01:38.43]
[01:39.30]	Point the blame
[01:40.42]	At the ones who beat and cut me
[01:42.48]	And shot me with the gun
[01:45.73]
[01:46.47]	And threw me in the river
[01:48.85]	Like I was trash when they were done
[01:51.16]
[01:53.98]	I was sent back to my mother
[01:56.72]	At least what was left of me
[01:59.79]
[02:00.47]	She kept my casket open
[02:02.22]
[02:03.79]	For the whole wide world to see
[02:06.35]
[02:08.60]	The awful desecration
[02:10.40]
[02:12.77]	And the evidence of hate
[02:15.83]	You could not recognize me
[02:18.39]	The mutilation was so great
[02:22.58]
[02:23.77]	Became a cry for justice then
[02:26.39]	To be finally fulfilled
[02:29.70]	All because of me, a black boy
[02:33.08]	My name was Emmett Till
[02:37.71]
[02:38.76]	Oh oh oh oh oh oh ...
[02:42.77]
[03:04.08]	Oh, I had rather lived
[03:06.96]	Till I was too old to die young
[03:10.77]	Not even a soul I left behind
[03:13.71]	All that might have come
[03:14.66]
[03:18.91]	Summer clouds above my head
[03:20.41]	The grass beneath my feet
[03:23.72]
[03:25.54]	The warmth of a good woman
[03:28.97]	Her kisses soft and sweet
[03:34.23]
[03:36.85]	Perhaps to be a father
[03:39.16]	Of a black boy of my own
[03:43.48]	Watch him grow into a kinder world
[03:46.85]
[03:50.78]	Than I had known
[03:52.04]	Where no child would be murdered
[03:53.41]	For the color of his skin
[03:55.35]
[03:57.48]	And love would be the only thing
[03:59.85]
[04:00.79]	Inside the hearts of men
[04:02.23]
[04:05.85]	They say the horror of that night
[04:08.16]
[04:08.66]	Is haunting heaven still
[04:09.62]
[04:12.06]	Where I am one more black boy
[04:15.18]	My name is Emmett Till
