Moveable feast
clipping the church
it’s about time
passing over like a hymn
death swallowed up
in victory
keep a clear head
I'll sing you a song
look back down
bombed church
Birmingham Sunday
a choir sings of freedom
better days ahead
never bothered god
the sunsets
and the misery
better sing along
the sunsets
and the misery
better sing along
This damn thing presumes that you'll know what I know. Funny. Lord. Alabama 1963. Birmingham Sunday. (I was 10 years old. I knew nothing.) Song written by the great Richard Farina. Recorded by the great Joan Baez. More recently covered by the great Rhiannon Giddens. Can we ever say we're sorry?
