Luther King was a good ole boy
Raised in poverty
Couldn`t be broke or even provoked
Made rock and roll history
Gave the people hope with a good
full scope
Of freedom been denied
Politicians know that freedom grows
Because of that he died.
(Chorus)
Let` em feel it when they see you
You can`t keep a good man down
You can`t keep a good man down
You can`t keep a good man down
I feel like singin` to you this song
For all the livin` underdogs
The flame of hope must carry on
Even against unbeatable odds
It don`t matter if you`re president
Or rock and roll stars
If they got your name it`s all the same
And they know who you are
(Chorus)
