Quando Jackie Robinson vestiu aquele uniformeWhen Jackie Robinson slapped that uniform on
Quando Jackie Robinson colocou aquela camisaWhen Jackie Robinson pulled that jersey on
Seu olhar era claroHis eye was clear
Sua voz soava firmeHis voice rang true
E o número nas costas era 42And the number on his back was 42

Nascido na GeórgiaBorn in Georgia
Jogou nas Ligas NegrasPlayed in the Negro Leagues
Mudou para o verde do exércitoSwitched to army green
Na grande guerra lá foraIn the big war overseas
Então as Grandes Ligas vieram chamandoThen the Big Leagues come a callin’
Disseram: "Seu Robinson, vista isso"Said Mr. Robinson pull this on
E o número nas costas era 42And the number on his back was 42

Quando Jackie Robinson pendurou aquele uniformeWhen Jackie Robinson hung that uniform up
