Cuby + Blizzards - Don't Wanna Be Black in Mississippi lyrics

Don't wanna be black in Mississippi Though they've got the right to choose Don't wanna be black in Mississippi baby Though they've got the right to choose Don't wanna be black in Mississippi Cause they still got that same old blues Don't wanna be black in Mississippi There's a secret way to keep them down Don't wanna be black down in Mississippi There's a secret way to keep them down If it wasn't for the tractor You'd still find them behind the plow Don't wanna be black in Mississippi Cause they still burn their churches down Don't wanna be black in Mississippi baby They still burn their churches down

You still see the smoking shotguns Firing another round Don't wanna be white in Mississippi Cause it was our responsibility Don't wanna be white down in Mississippi Talk about responsibility That's why I don't wanna be down in Mississippi That's why I don't wanna be black down in Mississippi That's why I don't wanna be black down in Mississippi Talk about Mississippi Firing another round Don't wanna be black or white They still ‘ve got that same old blues Mississippi baby Talk about Mississippi The same old blues That's what I'm talking about There's a secret way to keep them down
