Human Man



Human man
better keep your head

Don't forget
what your good book said

Human change
gonna come at last

Now your crosses
are burning fast

Human man

I saw cotton
and I saw black
Tall white mansions
and little shacks.

Human man
when will you
pay them back?

I heard screamin'
and bullwhips cracking

How long? How long?

Human man
better keep your head
Don't forget
what your good book said

Human change
gonna come at last

Now your crosses
are burning fast

Human 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?
