Here's to the State of Mississippi Lyrics

Advisory - the following lyrics contain explicit language:
Here's to the State of Mississippi
For underneath her borders, the devil draws no lines
If you drag her muddy river, nameless bodies you will find
Whoa the fat trees of the forest have hid a thousand crimes
The calender is lyin' when it reads the present timeWhoa, here's to the land you've torn out the heart of
Mississippi, find yourself another country to be part ofHere's to the people of Mississippi
Who say the folks up north, they just don't understand
And they tremble in their shadows at the thunder of the Klan
The sweating of their souls can't wash the blood from off their hands
They smile and shrug their shoulders at the murder of a manOh, here's to the land you've torn out the heart of

Mississippi, find yourself another country to be part ofHere's to the schools of Mississippi
Where they're teaching all the children that they don't have to care
All of rudiments of hatred are present everywhere
And every single classroom is a factory of despair
There's nobody learning such a foreign word as fairOh, here's to the land you've torn out the heart of
Mississippi, find yourself another country to be part ofHere's to the cops of Mississippi
They're chewing their tobacco as they lock the prison door
Their bellies bounce inside them as they knock you to the floor
No they don't like taking prisoners in their private little war
Behind their broken badges there are murderers and moreOh, here's to the land you've torn out the heart of
Mississippi, find yourself another country to be part ofAnd, here's to the judges of Mississippi
Who wear the robe of honor as they crawl into the court
They're guarding all the bastions with their phony legal fort
Oh, justice is a stranger when the prisoners report
When the black man stands accused the trial is always shortOh, here's to the land you've torn out the heart of
Mississippi, find yourself another country to be part ofAnd here's to the government of Mississippi
In the swamp of their bureaucracy they're always bogging down
And criminals are posing as the mayors of the towns
They're hoping that no one sees the sights and hears the sounds
And the speeches of the governor are the ravings of a clownOh, here's to the land you've torn out the heart of
Mississippi, find yourself another country to be part ofAnd here's to the laws of Mississippi
Congressmen will gather in a circus of delay
While the Constitution is drowning in an ocean of decay
Unwed mothers should be sterilized, I've even heard them say
Yes, corruption can be classic in the Mississippi wayOh, here's to the land you've torn out the heart of
Mississippi, find yourself another country to be part ofAnd here's to the churches of Mississippi
Where the cross, once made of silver, now is caked with rust
And the Sunday morning sermons pander to their lust
The fallen face of Jesus is choking in the dust
Heaven only knows in which God they can trustOh, here's to the land you've torn out the heart of
Mississippi, find yourself another country to be part of
