Collins, Judy - It Isn't Nice Lyrics
It isn't nice to block the doorway
It isn't nice to go to jail
There are nicer ways to do it
But the nice ways always fail
You told us once, you told us twice
But if that's freedom's price, we don't mind
No, no, no, we don't mind, no, no, no
It isn't nice to block the doorway
Or to sleep in on the floor
Or to shout our cry of freedom
In the hotel or the store
It isn't nice, it isn't nice
But if that's freedom's price, we don't mind
No, no, no, we don't mind, no, no, no
Yeah, we tried negotiations
And the token picket line
Mr. Charlie didn't see us
And he might as well be blind
When you deal with men of ice
You can't deal with ways so nice
But if that's freedom's price, we don't mind
No, no, no, we don't mind, no, no, no
They murdered boys in Mississippi
They shot Medgar in the back
Did you say that wasn't proper?
Did you stand out on the track?
You were quiet just like mice
Now you say that we're not nice
But if that's freedom's price, we don't mind
Sing it out, we don't mind, no, no, no
It isn't nice to block the doorway
It isn't nice to go to jail
There are nicer ways to do it
But the nice ways always fail
It isn't nice, isn't nice
Told us once, you told us twice
Well, thank you, buddy, for your advice
But if that's freedom's price, we don't mind
No, no, no, we don't mind, no, no, no
We don't mind

Collins, Judy It Isn't Nice Comments
So appropriate for these times. "Mr Charlie didnt see us" and he's still not seeing us.
One of my faves of hers... especially in these times!!! Thank you for posting!
Whenever I get frustrated listening to the unaffected telling the disaffected to stop complaining for being killed I come back and listen to this. 50 years and counting. Thank you Judy.
