On November 22nd of 1963
There struck in Dallas, Texas, a great calamity
It shocked our mighty nation and all beneath the sun
When U.S. President Kennedy was downed by a sniper’s gun
It happened on the Dallas streets as he rode in a car
And the streets were lined with people and some had traveled far
Yes, some had come from Waco, and some had come from Kent
And some had come from Fort Worth to see the President
Most of the crowd were happy, they cheered as the car drove by
But some were filled with hatred and held their banners high
One banner read as follows, “We hold you in contempt!
Because of your socialist policies, we hold you in contempt!”
The President ignored them, he let the car drive by
For he knew that they were sick in heart and in the minority
The car continued slowly, “They like you,” the governor’s wife said
When above that crowd of people, three shots rang overhead
The President slumped in his seat, the Governor he fell too
And the wives stared at their husbands in shock of what to do
The car rushed to the hospital and doctors to his side
But one shot had been fatal, and the President he died
They caught Lee Harvey Oswald and charged him with the crime
Of assassinating the President, the calamity of our time
Since Oswald had been to Russia, some said, “We told you so!
We gotta kill off all the Commies cause look what they will do!”
These were the same who held the signs against the President
Though their weapons weren’t as fatal, their hatred was as great
For hatred lurks in hearts that fear the unity of Man
Who fear the ultimate brotherhood of white man, black and tan
The President he knew this, he pledged Universal Law
Was a bullet took our leader, was Hatred was the cause
--Charles Deemer
Today I belong in the Mafia assassination camp regarding this historic event, persuaded by the comprehensive book Ultimate Sacrifice.
