What a show, huh?
Has this been a great show?
And anyone [Dm] watching on the TV, keep donating, because it's going to the best cause, Robin Hood,
of taking it right to the people.
Many years ago I wrote a song when there were a lot of troubles in the southern states of America
over civil rights, and I was hoping that by writing [G] this song, I might bring a little bit of hope
to the people who are going through the struggles.
So again, I'm hoping that tonight this might bring a little bit of hope
to the people who are currently going through the struggles.
