[intro: nona hendryx & martin luther king jr.]
(i have a dream this afternoon that the brotherhood of man will become a reality in this day, with this faith
i will go out and carve a tunnel of hope through the mountain of despair, with this faith
i will go out with you and transform dark yesterdays
into bright tomorrows) (ooooh~woooo~oooh)
(with this faith we will be able to achieve this new day)

[verse 1]
southern trees bear a strange fruit
blood on the leaves, blood at the root
black bodies swinging in the southern breeze
strange fruit hanging from the poplar trees
oooh~woooo~oooh

[verse 2]
pastoral scene of the gallant south
big bulging eyes and the twisted mouth
scent of magnolia, clean and fresh
and the sudden smell of burning flesh
(i have a dream this afternoon) (ooh~ooh~woooh~ooh~hooo)
(i have a dream this afternoon)
ooh~ooh~woooh~ooh~hooo

[bridge]
(i have a dream this afternoon that the brotherhood of man will become a reality in this day
when all of god’s children) (strange fruit)
(black men and white men
jews and gentiles
protestants and catholics
will be able to join hands
and sing with the negroes in the spiritual of old) (strange fruit)
(free at last, free at last
thank god) (oooh~woooo~oooh)
[verse 3]
here is a fruit for the crows to pluck
for the rain to gather, for the wind to suck
for the sun to rot, for the trees to drop
here is a strange and bitter crop
ooh~ooh~woooh~ooh~hooo

[outro]
strange fruit
strange fruit
ooh~ooh~woooh~ooh~hooo
