A. Philip Randolph
The power of poco a poco
To get out of bed every day
The haters keep saying you’re loco
Step by step you keep going your way
The power of poco a poco
You fix your eyes and organize for years
The haters keep saying you’re loco
Then one day a brand new way appears
The power of poco a poco
The power of effort and time
The power of people together
The beauty of the hill is the climb
by Richard W. Bray
