Nina Simone - Why? (The King Of Love Is Dead) lyrics

Your rating:

What's gonna happen now?  In all of our cities?

My people are rising; they're living in lies.

Even if they have to die

Even if they have to die at the moment they know what life is

Even at that one moment that ya know what life is

If you have to die, it's all right

Cause you know what life is

You know what freedom is for one moment of your life



But he had seen the mountaintop

And he knew he could not stop

Always living with the threat of death ahead

Folks you'd better stop and think

Everybody knows we're on the brink

What will happen, now that the King is dead?



We can all shed tears; it won't change a thing

Teach your people:  Will they ever learn?

Must you always kill with burn and burn with guns

And kill with guns and burn - don't you know how we gotta react?



But he had seen the mountaintop

And he knew he could not stop

Always living with the threat of death ahead

Folks you'd better stop and think

Everybody knows we're on the brink

What will happen, now that the King of love is dead?
