Martin Luther King Jr.


One day in Tennessee Died a man who had a dream. The words he spoke in D.C. Will live on in high esteem. Fighting for civil rights To ride buses along with whites. Many times he was arrested, But rose a leader most attested. Without words from this man The fight for rights would disband. Still today He would say. I have a dream!
