歌曲歌詞
Hey Nelly Nelly come to the window
Hey Nelly Nelly look at what I see
He’s riding into town on a sway back mule
Got a tall black hat and he looks like a fool
He sure is talking like he’s been to school
And it’s 1851
Hey Nelly Nelly listen what he’s saying
Hey Nelly Nelly he says it’s getting late
And he says them black folks should all be free
To walk around the same as you and me
He’s talking bout a thing he calls democracy
And it’s 1858
Hey Nelly Nelly hear the band a playing
Hey Nelly Nelly hand me down my gun
Cause the men are cheering and the boys are too
They’re all putting on their coats of blue
I can’t sit around here and talk to you
Cause it’s 1861
Hey Nelly Nelly Come to the window
Hey Nelly Nelly I’ve come back alive
My coat of blue is stained with red
And the man in the tall black hat is dead
We sure will remember all the things he said
In 1865
Hey Nelly Nelly come to the window
Hey Nelly Nelly look at what I see
I see white folks and colored walking side by side
They’re walking in a column that’s a century wide
It’s still a long and a hard and a bloody ride
In 1964
