Lynetta

Lynetta, Lynetta, Lynetta Jones she was called. She stood tall and strong. Just a humble woman from the hills of Arkansas. She was the writer of many beautiful words and thoughts that have never been heard. But when the time came when they had her in their hands, those Gorilla men, they wanted her to talk and tell and put her only son Jim in the hell of jail. Well, its time to see how Lynetta has caused thousands to be free. She give more then words can say: Her son, her love, trust, Communism, a brighter day.
