Verse 1
kind of surprise you
with a couple extra people tonight
on the program.
Some of the best music

in the last year
was not made on any stage
or on any phonograph record,
but down in a very muddy little village
called Resurrection City in Washington,
D .C. and the song fests there held every evening
under the leadership of Reverend
Frederick Douglass
Kirkpatrick from Louisiana

and here they are now we are
