Kris Kristofferson - Jesse Jackson Lyrics
He was walking with your brother on the streets of Alabama
He was marching next to Martin when he died
Working face to face in Cuba and Managua Nicaragua
He did not yet beat the devil, but he tried
There's a better world a'coming
Where a man can hope a man will show some heart
You just keep right on believing
In the better side of human
They ain't ready for it yet, but it's a start
And you move'em when you hit'em in the heart
We must bring it all together we must start right from the bottom
Back to helping one another when we can
'Cause if he's hungry and he's human and he's fighting for his Freedom
Hold on brother, Jesse Jackson
There's a better world a'coming
Where a man can hope a man will show some heart
You just keep right on believing
In the better side of human
They ain't ready for you yet, but it's a start
And you move'em when you hit'em in the heart
Hold on brother, Jesse Jackson
There's a better world a'coming
Where a man can hope a man will show some heart
You just keep right on believing
In the better side of human
They ain't ready for you yet, but it's a start
And you move'em when you hit'em in the heart

Terrific song about a true American leader by true American legends.
great vocals, beat, and melody.. why waste the potential of a good song on a scumbag like Jesse Jackson??
This had to be the career low point for KK.
Why? You do know that both Kris and Willie are Liberals
@Jason Harshman Kris, yes, Willie, not so much. The only thing Willie has in common with liberals is his love for cannabis.
I love this song! The first time I heard it I thought it was Jesse James and couldn't find it anywhere but now I know it's (obviously) not about either Jesse James! Thanks for posting :)
