1 Contributor Southern man, you better keep your head (Keep your head)
Don't forget what your good book said (Good book said)
Southern change has gotta come at last (Come at last)
Now, your crosses are burnin' fast (Burnin' fast)
Southern man
Oh, did you hear that?
I saw cotton and I saw black
Tall, white mansions and little shacks
Southern man, when will you pay them back? Lord
I heard screamin', bullwhips crackin'
How long? How long? How long is it gonna last?
Did you hear that? My lord
Ohhhhh, yeah, yeah
[Instrumental Break]
Ooh, Lily Belle
Your hair so golden brown
Have I seen your black man comin' 'round? Oh, lord
Swear by god that, when I see him, gonna shoot him down!
I heard screamin', bullwhips crackin'
How long? How long?
How long? How long will it last?
Did you hear that? My lord
Ohhhhh, yeah
[Instrumental Break]
Ohh
How long? How long?
How long? How long?
How long? How long will it, will it, will it last?
Can you do, can you do, can you do that?

Can you do, can you do, can you do that?
