Dm Bb Gm x2

Dm                 Fmaj7
Southern man, better keep your head,
Bb                    G7
donʼt forget what your Good Book says.
Dm                 Fmaj7
Southern change gonna come at last,
Bb                  G7               Dm
now your crosses are burninʼ fast, southern man.

Dm Bb Gm x2

Dm              Bb       Gm
I saw cotton and I saw black,
Dm                     Bb            Gm
tall white mansions and little shacks;
Dm                        Bb          Gm
southern man when will you pay them back?
A
I heard screaminʼ and bull whips crackinʼ.

How long, how long? Ah!

Dm Bb Gm x2

Southern man, better keep your head,
donʼt forget what your Good Book says.
Southern change gonna come at last,
now your crosses are burninʼ fast, southern man.
Lillie Bell, your hair is golden brown,
Iʼve seen your black man cominʼ round,
swear by God, Iʼm gonna cut him down!
I heard screaminʼ and bull whips crackinʼ.
How long, how long? Ah!

Dm Bb Gm x2
