| That giant was a fighter born and raised
|
| Mississippi born and raised
|
| On that canvas born and raised
|
| Dirty streets born and raised
|
| The people stood up to wave those white flags
|
| The devil had died, devil had died, the devil died
|
| Born and raised through the valley born and raised
|
| In the city born and raised
|
| Down south born and raised
|
| The people stood up and a cheer went through the air
|
| That devil had died, devil had died, the devil died
|
| Sharpened tongues fair painted divers
|
| Forearms rest in streams of silver
|
| Golden people pass in silence
|
| But it won’t slip away
|
| That giant was a mountain of a man
|
| Walking trembles through the earth
|
| Like a riot in the streets tearin' Florence to the ground.
|
| The people stood up to wave those white flags
|
| The devil had died, devil had died, the devil died
|
| Born and raised in 65 born and raised
|
| In the streets born and raised
|
| Televised born and raised
|
| The people stood up and a cheer went through the air
|
| That devil had died, devil had died, the devil died
|
| Sharpened tongues fair painted divers
|
| Forearms rest in streams of silver
|
| Golden people pass in silence
|
| But it won’t slip away
|
| That giant was a fighter born and raised
|
| Mississippi born and raised
|
| On that canvas born and raised
|
| Dirty streets born and raised
|
| The people stood up to wave those white flags
|
| The devil had died, devil had died, the devil died
|
| Born and raised In those gloves born and raised
|
| In them women born and raised
|
| In the mind born and raised
|
| The people stood up and a cheer went through the air
|
| That devil had died, devil had died, the devil died |
