Southern Man (Live Carnegie Hall 1970)

[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

[Verse 1]
I saw cotton and I saw black
Tall white mansions and little shacks
Southern man, when will you pay them back?
I heard screaming and bullwhips cracking
How long? How long? Ah

[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

[Verse 2]
Lily Belle, your hair is golden brown
I've seen your black man comin' 'round
Swear by God, I'm gonna cut him down
I heard screamin' and bullwhips crackin'
How long? How long? Ah

[Outro]
Southern man

I, I heard that some of you people waited in line to get tickets to this, and I thank you for going through that
