[C] Well that voice doesn't sound like it comes from death [F] row
With a [Am] violent person that voice just won't [G] go
Another [F] man has confessed but that's no help at [G] all
For [F] there on death row stands Abu Ja[C]mal
Hear now that voice how it's so digni[F]fied
The [Am] calm speaking voice has conviction and [G] pride
And the [F] charges against him make no sense at [G] all
Once you [F] hear the proud voice of Abu Ja[C]mal
So join Nelson Mendala and Susan Sar-an-[F]don
Join [Am] Harry Belefonte as the list goes on and [G] on
And [F] protest with a letter or maybe a phone [G] call
For [F] there on death row stands Abu Ja[C]mal
Well that voice doesn't sound like it comes from death row
With a violent person that voice just won't go
Another man has confessed but that's no help at all
For there on death row stands Abu Jamal
Hear now that voice how it's so dignified
The calm speaking voice has conviction and pride
And the charges against him make no sense at all
Once you hear the proud voice of Abu Jamal
So join Nelson Mendala and Susan Sar-an-don
Join Harry Belefonte as the list goes on and on
And protest with a letter or maybe a phone call
For there on death row stands Abu Jamal
That voice doesn't sound like it comes from death row
With a violent person that voice it just don't go
Another man has confessed but that's apparently no help at all
For still on death row stands Abu Jamal
Hear now that voice how it's so dignified
That calm speaking voice has conviction and pride
And the charges against him make no sense at all
Once you heard the proud voice of Abu Jamal
So join Nelson Mendala and Susan Sar-an-don
Join Harry Belefonte and the list goes on and on
And protest with a letter or maybe a phone call
For still on death row stands Abu Jamal
