Twas down in Mississippi
Not so long ago
When a young boy from Chicago
Walk through a southern door
This boy's faithful tragedy
You should all remember well
The color of his skin was black
And his name was Emmett Till
Some men they dragged him to a barn
And there they beat him up
They said they had a reason
But I disremember what
They tortured him and did some things
Too evil to repeat
There was screaming sounds inside the barn
There was laughing sounds out on the street
Then they rolled his body down a gulf
Amidst a blood-red rain
And they threw him in the waters wide
To cease his screaming pain
The reason that they killed him there
And I'm sure it wasn ' t no lie
Was just for the fun of killin' him
And to watch him slowly die
And then to stop the United States
Of yelling for a trial
Two brothers they confessed that they
Had killed poor Emmett Till
But on the jury there were men
Who helped the brothers commit this awful crime
And so this trial was a mockery
But nobody seemed to mind
I saw the morning papers
But I could not bear
To see the smiling brothers
Walkin' down the courthouse stairs
For the jury found them innocent
And the brothers they went free
While Emmett's body floats the foam
Of a Jim Crow southern sea
If you can't speak out against this kind of thing
A crime that's so unjust
Your eyes are filled with dead men's dirt
Your mind is filled with dust
Your arms and legs

And your blood it must refuse to flow
For you let this human race
Fall down so god-awful low
This song is just a reminder
To remind your fellow man

In that ghost-robed Ku Klux Klan
