Текст песни Ride On Red, Ride On - Louisiana Red

Ride on
Ride on red
Ride on!

I left my home in Vicksburg
And startet travelling north

Made it to New Orleans
As the bus was taking off

The citizens' is committee
Was giving away the fare

"If you don't like the south, boy,
Just get out away from here"

Ride on,
Ride on Red,
Ride on

Ride off to my freedom
And make the North your home.

We made it into Shreveport,
Where we were supposed to eat

I got myself a sandwich
And eat it on the street

Ride on,
Ride on Red,
Ride on

Gonna ride to your freedom
Make the North your home.

We made it into Little Rock,
We made another state

Took the whole of the U.S. army
Make one school integrate

Ride on,
Ride on Red,
Ride on

Gonna ride on to your freedom
And make the North your home.

Well I live here in New York
And I am doing fine
Have myself a ball
Above the Mason-Dixon line

Ride on,
Ride on Red,
Ride on

Gonna ride on to my freedom
And make the North your home.
