Staples, Mavis - We'll Never Turn Back Lyrics






Now we've been 'buked and we've been scorned
We been talked about sure as you' born

But we'll never turn back
No we'll never turn back
Until we walk in peace

We have walked through the shadows of death
We had to walk all by ourselves

But we'll never turn back
Until we have all been freed
Until we have all been freed
And we'll have equality

We have hung our heads and cried
Cried for those like Lee who died
Died for you and he died for me
Died for the cause of equality

But we'll never turn back
Until we have all been freed
No we'll never turn back
No we'll never turn back

    Jesus, there's lots of versions of this song (a lot of them with Ry Cooder). But the one that gives me chills is J.B. Lenoir's.
