freedom ride - troy cassar-daley lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
remember 1965, the story of the freedom ride
on a bus, they rode from town to town
east to west, north to south, to get it from the horse’s mouth
those true stories on the ground

[verse 2]
on a blazing summer’s day, charlie perkins led the way
at the public pool in moree
“step back” said the man, “you can’t get in”
“you’ve got the wrong coloured skin, we don’t want no trouble here you see”

[chorus 1]
all aboard the freedom ride
all aboard now, step inside
all aboard the freedom ride
come and join the freedom ride
fight for justice, fight for pride
all aboard the freedom ride

[verse 3]
charlie says now “that’s a shame, ‘cause trouble is my middle name
you know names hurt more than sticks and stones
you can try to knock us down, try to run us outta town
but look around, you’ll see i’m not alone.”

[chorus 2]
all aboard the freedom ride
all aboard now, step inside
all aboard the freedom ride
come and join the freedom ride
fight for justice, fight for pride
all aboard the freedom ride

all aboard the freedom ride
all aboard now, step inside
all aboard the freedom ride
we’ll always need a freedom ride
fear and hate will never die
all aboard the freedom ride
all aboard the freedom ride, all aboard
