Right and Wrong

Rolling down the southern street
My feet are hanging out the passenger window
Yeah, count the trees going over my head
Yeah I count the trees and the green canopy hanging over my head
Said keep in mind it's 1943 we're rolling by that negro university
When all of a sudden they smile and wave
They've done no wrong, but still they smile and they wave

I don't know whats right, I don't know whats wrong anymore
I tell you it's no good hanging people out to dry

Driving around that southern town stopping by for pie and coffee
Got nowhere to go and no one to see and nothing on my mind
Said keep in mind it's 1943 we're rolling by that negro university
When all of a sudden they smile and wave
They've done no wrong, but still they work and work and wave

I don't know whats right, I don't know whats wrong anymore
I tell you it's no good hanging people out to dry

And all my friends, all my friends, all my friends feel so entitled
Said all my rich white friends and all their rich white friends
And all their rich girlfriends feeling so entitled

I don't know whats right, I don't know whats wrong anymore
I tell you it's no good hanging people out to dry
