GUEST,Sam A. Robrin Not Last Night But The Night Before-rhyme (167* d) RE: Not Last Night But The Night Before-rhyme 12 Sep 11


I came here to get the rest of a Civil Rights - era crowd song that Pete Seeger references in an issue of BROADSIDE (#57, if you care to look it up):

Last night and the night before,
(Jump back, Wallace, jump back!)
Twenty-five troopers at my door,
(Jump back, Wallace, jump back!)
I got up and let 'em in....

Anyone know more about its use during the Alabama freedom marches?
