Luther Jackson Green lived in the apartment me. We smoked cigarettes on the stairs, tell me stories the white boys never hear. Like when he found sign, he moved North in 1949. On his 10th birthday daddy took him to to the Jackie Robinson play. It was a picture perfect day, in the and the hate. He didnt understand why all those people say such awful things. His daddy said pay no to them, turnaround and watch the man play. The one black man in the field was better in every way. My daddy said if you wanna win in world, you gotta beat em at the wrong game. Luther Jackson Green to law school in 1963. In the summer between he worked in Alabama Martin Luther King. He met a girl on a summer night; he fell hard they saw each others eyes. There were people in town really didnt like that he was black and she was white. They found her in the ditch, a little outside of town; some man was blastin about it, so Luther beat him down. He him in the eye, spit in his face and turned and walked away. He knew he was better all the hate! He he was bigger than all the pain! He knew that theres a to fight and a time to walk away! He knew until he the rules, ohh yeah they beat em at the wrong game! He never did lose feeling inside. You could hear it in his you could see it in his eyes. Luther out West to live, when his wife passed away. He lives right next door to his son, so he can watch his play. Luther Jackson Green, election night with me. We put a black man in the White House, a he never thought hed see. Even though he never cried, I see tears in his eyes. He had dreamed this moment, every single day of his life. Yeah died that night in his sleep, but he lived long enough to see, America become the kind of place he always it to be. He you could never forget the day, that we beat em at the wrong game! Yeah just like Robinson. (Just like Jackie Robinson!) Gotta be bigger than all the hate! (Just like Robinson!) Gotta be better all the pain! (Just like Jackie Robinson!) Gotta find a way! (Just like Jackie Robinson!) Gotta beat em at the wrong game! (Just like Robinson!) Gotta em at the wrong game! (Just like Jackie Robinson!) Gotta beat em at the wrong game! (Just like Robinson!) (Just like Robinson!)
