Strange Fruit |
| Southern trees bearing strange fruits |
| Blood on the leaves, blood at the roots |
| Black bodies swinging in the southern breeze |
| There are strange fruits hanging from the poplar trees |
| Pastoral scene of the gallant south |
| Them big, bulging eyes and the twisted mouth |
| Scent of magnolias, sweet and fresh |
| Then the sudden smell of burning flesh |
| Here is fruit for the crows to pluck |
| For the rain to gather, for the winds to suck |
| For the sun to rot, for the trees to drop |
| Here is a strange and bitter crop |
