This We'll Overcome

(Intro - Instrumental)

I look out of my window
And remember yesterday
A time when life was simple
And things just weren’t this way.

The old folks sittin’ on the bench
Children runnin’ ‘round
And music spillin’ on the street
From all the clubs in town.

Then in the quiet of my room
My mind it wanders some
Back to the things my momma said
Like “this we’ll overcome”.

Then in the streets of Roman Town
The magician waved his wand
When all the folks on balconies
Broke out in joyous song.

(Instrumental)

Then in the quiet of my room
My mind it wanders some
Back to the things my momma said
Like “this we’ll overcome”.


We’ll overcome
We’ll overcome
Oh this we’ll overcome.
