Ruby Bridges

Happy Birthday Ruby Bridges you're the new face in my school
Pull me up a and I'll sit right next to you

There's no one in our lessons where did they all go
They'll learn a lesson one day don't you know

Your bravery and your courage for a girl of six years old
Well I'm proud to say that your story must be told

All the world is waiting for you brave
young girl they're waiting for you now

Respect to Barbara Henry in the face of hostility
Your courage and your faith will set us free

No racial segregations your black hand with my white
Together we can make this future bright

All the world is waiting for you brave
young girl they're waiting for you now

We marched in demonstrations from Selma to Montgomery
Black and white in racial harmony.
