Chorus:
|
"Southern man better cool your head
|
Don't forget what your good book says
|
Southern change gonna come at last
|
Now your crosses are burning fast
|
|
Southern Man..."
|
|
I saw cotton and I saw black
|
Tall white mansions and little shacks
|
Southern man when will you pay them back
|
I heard screaming and ooh whips cracking and
|
how long how long
|
hoooow long
|
|
Southern Man...
|
|
Chorus
|
|
Lilly pelle your hair is golden brown
|
I've seen your black man comin round
|
Swear to god I'm gonna cut him down
|
I heard screaming and ooh whips cracking and
|
How long how long
|
hoooow long
|
|
Southern Man...
|
|
