[00:00.00]Here's to the State of Mississippi (LP版) - Phil Ochs
[00:06.69]Here's to the State of Mississippi
[00:10.70]For underneath her borders
[00:13.04]The devil draws no lines
[00:16.38]If you drag her muddy river
[00:18.36]Nameless bodies you will find
[00:22.18]Whoa the fat trees of the forest
[00:24.68]Have hid a thousand crimes
[00:28.29]The calender is lying
[00:30.54]When it reads the present time
[00:34.20]Whoa here's to the land
[00:37.26]You've torn out the heart of
[00:40.64]Mississippi find yourself another country
[00:44.24]To be part of
[00:49.74]And here's to the people of Mississippi
[00:55.52]Who say the folks up north
[00:57.91]They just don't understand
[01:00.38]And they tremble in their shadows
[01:02.46]At the thunder of the Klan
[01:05.53]Oh the sweating of their souls
[01:07.30]Can't wash the blood from off their hands
[01:11.56]They smile and shrug their shoulders
[01:14.14]At the murder of a man
[01:17.44]Oh here's to the land
[01:20.29]You've torn out the heart of
[01:23.64]Mississippi find yourself
[01:26.20]Another country to be part of
[01:32.68]And here's to the schools of Mississippi
[01:38.36]Where they're teaching all the children
[01:40.70]That they don't have to care
[01:43.17]All of rudiments of hatred
[01:45.40]Are present everywhere
[01:48.12]And every single classroom
[01:50.07]Is a factory of despair
[01:54.02]And there's nobody learning
[01:56.32]Such a foreign word as fair
[02:00.06]Oh here's to the land
[02:02.90]You've torn out the heart of
[02:06.32]Mississippi find yourself another
[02:09.17]Country to be part of
[02:14.52]And here's to the cops of Mississippi
[02:20.06]They're chewing their tobacco
[02:21.92]As they lock the prison door
[02:24.67]Their bellies bounce inside them
[02:27.26]As they knock you to the floor
[02:29.66]No they don't like taking prisoners
[02:32.09]In their private little war
[02:35.82]And behind their broken badges
[02:38.44]There are murderers and more
[02:41.96]Oh here's to the land
[02:44.81]You've torn out the heart of
[02:48.12]Mississippi find yourself another country
[02:51.80]To be part of
[02:57.12]And here's to the judges of Mississippi
[03:03.11]Who wear the robe of honor
[03:05.36]As they crawl into the court
[03:08.01]They're guarding all the bastions
[03:10.07]With their phony legal fort
[03:12.96]Oh justice is a stranger
[03:15.11]When the prisoners report
[03:17.65]When the black man stands accused
[03:20.36]The trial is always short
[03:23.63]Oh here's to the land
[03:26.43]You've torn out the heart of
[03:29.80]Mississippi find yourself another country
[03:33.46]To be part of
[03:38.62]And here's to the government of Mississippi
[03:45.67]In the swamp of their bureaucracy
[03:48.04]They're always bogging down
[03:50.74]And criminals are posing
[03:52.86]As the mayors of the towns
[03:55.68]They're hoping that no one sees the sights
[03:58.15]And hears the sounds
[04:00.49]And the speeches of the governor
[04:03.00]Are the ravings of a clown
[04:06.72]Oh here's to the land you've torn
[04:10.28]Out the heart of
[04:12.86]Mississippi
[04:14.10]Find yourself another country to be part of
[04:21.71]And here's to the laws of Mississippi
[04:29.01]Congressmen will gather in a circus of delay
[04:33.45]While the Constitution is drowning
[04:35.77]In an ocean of decay
[04:38.26]Unwed mothers should be sterilized
[04:41.12]I've even heard them say
[04:44.63]Yes corruption can be classic
[04:47.15]In the Mississippi way
[04:50.67]Oh here's to the land you've torn
[04:54.26]Out the heart of
[04:56.88]Mississippi find yourself another country
[05:00.53]To be part of
[05:05.78]And here's to the churches of Mississippi
[05:11.55]Where the cross once made of silver
[05:14.15]Now is caked with rust
[05:16.34]And the Sunday morning sermons pander
[05:19.61]To their lust
[05:22.20]Oh the fallen face of Jesus is choking
[05:25.71]In the dust
[05:27.22]Heaven only knows in which God
[05:30.88]They can trust
[05:33.17]Oh here's to the land you've torn out
[05:37.30]The heart of
[05:39.36]Mississippi find yourself another country
[05:43.47]To be part of
