Huey Lewis And The News - Doing It All For My Ba lyrics

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

I saw cotton and I saw black

Tall white mansions and little shacks.

Southern man when will you pay them back?

I heard screamin’ and bullwhips cracking

How long? how long?

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

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 cracking

How long? how long?
