Lyrics
Southern man, better (Fmaj7)keep your head,
(Bb)don't forget what your
(G7)Good Book said.
(Dm)Southern change gonna (Fmaj7)come at last,
(Bb)now your crosses are (G7)burnin' fast,
(Dm)Southern man.
(Dm)I saw cotton and (Bb)I saw (Gm)black,
(Dm)tall white mansions and (Bb)little shacks;
(Dm)Southern man, when will you (Bb)pay them (Gm)back?
(A7)I heard screamin' and bullwhips crackin'.
How long, how long?
Ah!
(Dm)Southern man, better (Fmaj7)keep your head,
(Bb)don't forget what your
(G7)Good Book said.
(Dm)Southern change gonna (Fmaj7)come at last,
(Bb)now your crosses are (G7)burnin' fast,
(Dm)Southern man.
(Dm)Lily Belle, your is (Bb)golden (Gm)brown,
(Dm)I've seen your black man (Bb)comin' 'round;
(Dm)swear, by God, I'm gonna (Bb)cut him (Gm)down!
(A7)I heard screamin' and bullwhips crackin'.
How long, how long?
Ah!
