John Lewis has switched. Lewis has heard the voices of the people and now suppots Barack Obama instead of Hillary Rodham Clinton. Lewis, a foot soldier of the civil right movement, could not avoid the freedom train of change.
According to the New York Times:
“In recent days, there is a sense of movement and a sense of spirit,” said Mr. Lewis, a Georgia Democrat who endorsed Mrs. Clinton last fall. “Something is happening in America and people are prepared and ready to make that great leap.”
Welcome aboard the freedom train:
The freedom train is coming, can't you hear the whistle blowing
Its time get your ticket and get on board
Its time for all the people to take this freedom ride
Get it together and work for freedom side by side
I'm gonna ride on the freedom train
I ain't gonna live this way again
I'm gonna get on the freedom train
from this day on I'll be a free man (yes I will I'll be a free man)
Seem like the times are changing people
The trains waiting at the station
go on up to the mountain top and get on board
Were gonna ride on through the valley
Under the clear blue sky
Everybody's gonna stand up proud with their heads held high
I'm gonna ride on the freedom train
I ain't gonna live this way again
I'm gonna get on the freedom train
from this day on I'll be a free man (yes I will I'll be a free man)
Keep on moving, Cast your vote
Tell 'em where to get off ,Keep on Going
We're gonna see the mountains, Keep on going
Gotta get your ticket,The Freedom Train
