Tuesday Morning
Lyricist:Melissa Etheridge, Jonathan Taylor
Up and down, all night long Skippin' it down Skippin' it down Up and down, all night long Skippin' it down I'm a forty
Ten O three on a Tuesday morning In the fall of an American dream A man is doing what he knows is right On flight ninety three
He loved his Mom and he loved his Dad He loved his home and he loved his man But on that bloody Tuesday morning He died an American
Now you cannot change this And you can't erase this You can't pretend this Is not the truth
Up and down, all night long Skippin' it down Skippin' it down Up and down, all night long Skippin' it down I'm a forty
Even though he could not marry Or teach your children in our schools Because who he wants to love Is breaking your God's rules
He stood up on a Tuesday morning In the terror he was brave And he made his choice and without a doubt A hundred lives he must have saved
Now you cannot change this And you can't erase this You can't pretend this Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com Is not the truth
And the things you might take for granted Your inalienable rights Some might chose to deny him Even though he gave his life
Can you live with yourself in the land of the free? And make him less of a hero than the other three Well it might begin to change ya In a field of Pennsylvania
Now you cannot change this And you can't erase this You can't pretend this Is not the truth
Stand up America Hear the bell now as it tolls Wake up America It's Tuesday morning Come on, let's roll
Up and down, all night long Skippin' it down Skippin' it down Up and down, all night long Skippin' it down I'm a forty
Now you cannot change this And you can't erase this You can't pretend this Is not the truth
Up and down all night long Skippin' it down Skippin' it down Up and down all night long Skippin' it down I'm a forty
