Tuesday Morning
Melissa Etheridge

LGBTQ* Music You Should Know

Melissa Etheridge — “Tuesday Morning”

You can’t erase this -

You can’t pretend this is not the truth.

Even though he could not marry

Or teach your children in our schools

Because who he wants to love

Is breaking your (G)od’s rules

He stood up on a Tuesday morning


Melissa Etheridge wrote “Tuesday Morning” to pay respect and give recognition to the LGBTQ* individuals involved in the events of September 11th. The song pays special tribute to Mark Bingham, a rugby player from San Francisco, who along with others overpowered the hijackers on Flight 93.
