don't cry my baby don't cry all the while don't cry my baby just give me a smile seen my daddy die in the war seen my mamma die cryin' for Ring-a a-ring-a but I've got to sing a-ring-a a-ring-a but I've got to sing they call me a hounddog they call me a swine it's all because of my color for their war though I'm fine Ring-a a-ring-a but I've got to sing a-ring-a a-ring-a but I've got to sing Dee dum dee dum they're talkin' 'bout freedom of religion and race but if you're a negro they slap you in the face Ring-a a-ring-a but I've got to sing a-ring-a a-ring-a but I've got to sing so what's the use fightin' for that sacred democracy when Ku Klux Klan murd'rers are going scot-free Ring-a a-ring-a but I've got to sing a-ring-a a-ring-a but I've got to sing But I'm still happy so don't cry, my babe together we'll strife for bein' free people some day Ring-a a-ring-a So we've got to sing a-ring-a a-ring-a Together we'll sing dum dah dah dee yay-ay dee dum dah dah dee day dee dum dah dah dee day-ay dee dum dah dah dee yay (c) Ferre Grignard

goedemorgen,
ik zou zo graag alleen de muziek willen, omdat ik er een andere tekst op heb gemaakt voor de verjaardag van mijn man.
is dat mogelijk

ZSoek al een tijdje naar de tekst. Begrijp hem nu veel beter. Nog steeds zeer actueel.
