I suppose it's possible. But if you've ever seen, for example, a documentary or movie about the Civil Rights movement, the marchers were probably singing "We Shall Overcome."

It's likely that I've heard it, then, but everytime I try to come up with a memory of it, I get "We Shall Not Be Moved".

Ooh! I like that one too.

We shall not, we shall not be moved
We shall not, we shall not be moved
Just like a tree that stands by the water
We shall not be moved...


"We Shall Overcome" is slower and more hymn-like.
