Rosa Parks: Just like You
That's My Seat
That's my seat
Don't take it from me
I need to get home
Just like you
Don't take it from me
I need to get home
Just like you
You can glare
And spit in my face
But I have my pride
Just like you
I work hard
To earn my pay, clothe
And feed my family
Just like you
How could you
think you are better
You were made by God
Just like me.
