Andrew, James, and Michael PLO FLQ UN IRA …and one of the most infamous… KKK 3 men doing what they felt was right Gunned down in their innocence In their prime For a cause A righteous cause The date in history June 21, 1964 We were all young once We were all innocent Two Whites and one Black Mississippi! Are you still burning? Edgar Ray Killen Stand and face your accusers It was a brazen notorious act Aided by a corrupt sheriff On a lonely road In Neshoba county Three murdered Because they believed! |
