Capo 3 
 
Verse: 
"I'm not afraid..." 
"Oh Keller, oh..." 
D5  B5  F5  A5 
 
D5                            B5 
I'm not afraid of the black man running 
F5                            A5 
He's got it right he's got a better life coming  
D5                        B5 
I don't care what the captain said  
        F5                     A5 
I fold it right at the top of my head  
D5                             B5 
I lost my sight and the state packs in  
  F5                     A5 
I follow my heart and it leads me right to Jackson  
 
Oh Keller oh oh oh  

She gave us a medal she gave us a map  

Oh Canner Row, oh oh oh  

If seeing is right, then look where you're at  
 
I'm not afraid of Nichol's Park  

I ride the train and I ride it after dark  

I'm not afraid to get it right  

I turn around and I give it one more try  

I said things that I meant to say  

The bandstand chairs and the Dewey Day parade  

I go out to the golden age  

The spirit is right and the spirit doesn't change  
 
Oh Keller oh oh oh  

She gave us mirror she gave us a map  

Oh Canner Row, oh oh oh  

If seeing is right then look where you're at  
 

D5               B5                 F5 
Andrew Jackson, all I'm asking  
            A5                    D5  
Show us the wheel and give us the wine  
B5           F5          A5 
   Woohoo!    Woohoo!  
Raise the banner, Jackson hammer  
Everyone goes to the capitol line  
Woohoo! woohoo!  
Colored preacher, nice to meet you!  
The spirit is here and the spirit is fine!  
Woohoo! Woohoo!  
Education, ask the nation  
 
You gave us our sight and the hearing is fine  
Woohoo! woohoo!  
Andrew Jackson all I'm asking  
Give us the wheel and give us the wine
