Lyrics

Way down south there's a birth of a nation, In the slavin' Jimmy done had Well he worked on a particular plantation, For the wife of a very jealous man Seapin' into the night you could hear them white boys sayin' Chorus: There's gonna be a strange fruit hangin' in the trees tonight When we bring Jimmy to his knees tonight, There's gonna be law and order Before he makes the border, Jimmy is gonna pay, With his life Now what can he say he paved his way Hoping and prayin, He was hoping they'd give him his freedom He shoulda said no when she said, Make love Now all his hopes and all his dreams are fadin' But he fit like a black hand in a white velvet glove Seapin' into the night you could hear them white boys sayin' Chorus: 1X Chorus: Talking 1X Chorus:
