Jackson, Mississippi is a mighty white town. The white folks, they like to keep the black folks down. They think they'll be alright but there's gonna be a fight.
Millionaires and paupers walk the hungry street. Rich and poor companions of the restless beat. Strangers in a foreign land, strike a match with a trembling hand.
First snow on the autumn ground. Covers grass where she once lay down. Blanket of white, grass out of sight,. Where did she go, tell me first snow.. .
