shot him dead. left him bleeding, he died in his bed.
he only meant to save his country from civil war,
confederates killed him instead.
it would have been easier to just let him do his job.
he would have moderate, unless you were a military cop, but even then.
he just wanted one strong union where together we stand, black and white, hand in hand.
i dont mean to be corny, but between the president and congress,
the path was pretty thorny. oh this road, so radical, the full reconstruction,
all types of destruction, could it have been avoided? oh well.
cuz lincoln died that day, while he was watching a play with his wife, what a way to go.
i guess well never know what it would have been like if lincoln had more scores, so many years ago.
