A black man's leader
A white skinned God
Pictures side by side
It's not so odd
With two sons dead
Her prayers cross the land
Where her dying bled
Where man hates man
Look away
Look away
From the heart of dixie
Look away
Look away
From the heart of dixie
A cross is burning in a field tonight
Hatred spills from the men in white
They're too far gone for us to save
Hatred fills a clear blue sky
We watch the anger and wonder why
We watch the anger and wonder
To stop the truth and hide the shame
In the heart of dixie
We were taught to hide the shame
In the heart of dixie
Stop the truth
Stop the truth
Stop the truth
Stop the truth
To stop the truth
To stop the truth
To stop the truth
In the heart of dixie
