lirik lagu saints of the underground - jimmy
[verse 1]
way down south there’s the 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
[pre~chorus]
as he ran into the night he could hear them white boys say
[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
[verse 2]
oh, workin’ and slavin’ and paying his way and hoping and prayin’
he was hoping they gave him his freedom
he shoulda said no when she said “makе love”
now all his hopes and all his dreams arе fading
but he fit like a black hand
in a white velvet glove
[pre~chorus]
as he ran into the night he could hear them white boys say
[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
[guitar solo]
[bridge]
there’s gonna be a strange fruit hangin’ in the trees tonight
when we bring jimmy to his knees tonight
[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
