She sang How I Got Over The video on YouTube, from the actual March on Washington, really harsh; i.e, poor quality, probably do to it's age. They just didn't have the recording capability back then. You can do a search for the lyrics to the song. I found them on LyricsKeeper.com. I will not give them here because I am uncertain of the copyright status...
