Southern Man
[Chorus]
Southern man, better keep your head
Don't forget what your good book said
Southern change gonna come at last
Now your crosses are burning fast
Southern man, southern man, southern man
Southern man, better keep your head
Don't forget what your good book said
[Verse 1]
I saw cotton and I saw trash
Tall white mansions and little shacks
Southern man, when will you pay them back?
I heard screamin' and bullwhips cracking
How long? How?
[Chorus]
Southern man, better keep your head
Don't forget what your good book said
Southern change gonna come at last
Now your crosses are burning fast
Southern man, southern man, southern man
[Verse 2]
Hangin' tresses of curly brown
I swear the nation is coming 'round
There's a change comin' in this town
I heard screamin' and bullwhips cracking
How long? How?
[Chorus]
Southern man, better keep your head
Don't forget what your good book said
Southern change gonna come at last
Now your crosses are burning fast
Southern man, southern man, southern man
