Jim Crow |
| Look what Jim Crow’s done and gone |
| Went and changed his name |
| Don’t know what he’s going by these days |
| But he’s still actin' the same |
| You can call it what you want to |
| But it’s still a minstrel show |
| You can call it what you want to |
| But it’s still Jim Crow |
| Jim’s probably laying in this morning |
| Hummin' as he sleeps |
| Feeling the glow of another man’s woman |
| As she lies beneath his feet |
| Enjoyin' the cool morning breeze |
| Smellin' flowers as he goes |
| Looks like he’s changed his ways |
| Ah, but he’s still Jim Crow |
| Jim will spend the rest of the day |
| Playin' in some big hotel |
| It’s an old song with very bad rhymes |
| But he does it so well |
| He’ll make some new acquaintances |
| When he’s out on his evening stroll |
| It’s amazing that after all this time |
| So many love |
| Big Jim Crow |
