Burning Cross |
| It was a judgment by color |
| Caught out on the road |
| In the middle of nowhere |
| There was a man, oh, shot in cold blood |
| But a sheet don’t hide the wrong |
| It don’t hide nothing |
| Yeah, it’s the work of the devil |
| Under the burning cross |
| (Under the burning cross) |
| It’s the work of the devil |
| Under the burning cross, yeah |
| (Under the burning cross) |
| Now his poor little babies |
| Been left there in the shack |
| And who’s gonna tell 'em |
| That their daddy ain’t coming back |
| Mother cries mercy |
| She sees the one she loved, yeah |
| Shot down under the burning cross |
| Yeah, it’s the work of the devil |
| Under the burning cross |
| (Under the burning cross) |
| Oh, it’s the work of the devil |
| Under the burning cross |
| (Under the burning cross) |
| Yeah, it’s the work of the devil |
| Under the burning cross |
| Yeah, on and on |
| Now this is the story of prejudice and pain |
| And you better believe it |
| That all the facts they still remain the same |
| But maybe our generation will help to make it alright |
| Yeah 'cause in this world we live |
| Under the burning cross |
| Under the burning cross |
| Under the burning cross |
| Hey! |
| Hey! |
| Yeah, it’s the work of the devil |
| Under the burning cross |
| (Under the burning cross) |
| Under the burning cross |
| (Under the burning cross) |
| Under the burning cross |
