What Can One
Little Person Do?
(Chorus:)
What can one little person
do? What can one little me or you do?
What can one little person
do to help this world go 'round?
One can help another one,
and together we can get the job done.
What can one little person
do to help this world?
Harriet
Tubman was alone on that darkened road to freedom,
but
she couldn't leave her people far behind.
Moses
stretched out her hand, and she led them to the freedom land,
for
she knew that she had justice on her side.
(Chorus)
When
Sojourner Truth was freed, she got down on her knees,
and
she prayed to God to help her on her way
With
her voice and with her might, she fought for what was right,
for
she knew that she had justice on her side.
(Chorus)
Rosa
Parks sat on the bus, and the driver said, "you must
move
to the back of the bus, or be thrown in jail"
But
she stayed and stood her ground, and she brought that old law down,
for
she knew that she had justice on her side.
(Chorus)
Brother
Martin Luther King told the world "I have a dream!"
and
he led this country's fight for human rights
We
must work for liberty, until all of us are free,
and
we'll know that we have justice on our side.
(Chorus - repeat last line)
