everything was burned

we were left with no respect

after shermans march to the sea

would you ever respect he?

they pardoned us for treason

but for some there was no effect

for when your all but left for dead

what's the point of living 'till the end?

the negro's are free

what else is new

i want to earn some dignity

but now that all the slaves are free

they get real jobs

leave to go on their own

but the kkk will bring them home
