this ain't no spiritual bcuz
only in America do slaves anticipate a dream
some far fetched fantasy disney like looney tune
of wishing for dixie hanging free from a mason's tree
tied to the cotton patch singing minstrels
of cursed chain gang memories
it seems like some blacks
want to be dragged back
like james byrd by white citizens
in councils conspiring to create
an indsutry of prison labor and
modern jim crow communities
sure time has brought change and
a strange name has been selected to lead
but still some africans proceed
to sell the souls of negroes
down the river to massa
where they stand naked
on auction blocks in front of
a white house with al jolsen
in black face sitting
in the oval office
singing songs
of lets stay together...
