Je score:
My name is Terry Roberts From Arkinsas I come I went down to the school The place they keep me from. I went down to the school house And this is what I saw.... State troopers with steel helmets In the State of Arkansas I went up to the troopers And said "please let me in" But all their guns were pointed At the color of my skin. They kept me from that school house Where I should be by law. That's what they call justice in the State of Arkansas His name is Orville Faubus, The Governor of the State His sent his troops all charging down Nine kids were at the gate Three hundred National Guard were there Dressed up to fight a war. And that is why I'm late for school In the State of Arkansas Now listen Mr. Governor And Mr. President, too Give me that Constitution That's what you've got to do Give me that Constitution I ask for nothing more That's what I want to study In the State of Arkansas
