Lyrics
The Last Mile
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Rivers were made for flowing
So why not let them flow?
People were made for showing
So why not let them show?
Show a little laughter
Show a little smile
'Cause we've started on the last mile.
Children's minds are crippled
Black is what they see.
Man's mind is murdered
So why not let him see?
Show a little laughter
Show a little smile
'Cause we've started on the last mile.
Children's minds are crippled
Black is what they see.
Man's mind is murdered,
So why not let him see?
Show a little laughter
Show a little smile
'Cause we've started on the last mile
