Mississippi Goddam (Unedited Version From Original Live Concert) - Nina Simone (妮娜·西蒙)
Alabama's gotten me so upset

Tennessee made me lose my rest

And everybody knows about Mississippi Goddam

Alabama's gotten me so upset

Tennessee made me lose my rest

And everybody knows about Mississippi Goddam

Can't you see it
I know you can feel it

It's all in the air

I can't stand the pressure much longer

Somebody say a prayer

Alabama's gotten me so upset
Tennessee made me lose my rest

And everybody knows about Mississippi Goddam

Hound dogs on my trail

The school children sitting in jail

Black cat cross my path

I think everyday's gonna be my last

Lord have mercy on this land of mine

We all gonna get it in due time

Cause I don't belong here

I don't belong there

I've even stopped believing in prayer

Don't tell me I tell you

Me and my people just about due

I've been there so I know
They keep on saying Go slow

Well that's just the trouble

Do it slow

Washing the windows

Do it slow

Picking the cotton
Do it slow

You're plain rotten

Do it slow

Too damn lazy

Do it slow

Thinking's crazy

Do it slow

Where am I going what am I doing
I don't know I don't know

Just try to do your very best

Stand up be counted with all the rest
Cause everybody knows about Mississippi Goddam

Picket lines school boy cots

They try to say it's a communist plot
All I want is equality

For my sister my brother my people and me

But you lied to me all these years

You told me to wash and clean my ears

And talk real fine just like a lady
And you'd stop calling me mama Sadie

But my country is full of lies

You're all gonna die and die like flies

I don't trust nobody any more

Keep on saying Go slow

But that's just the trouble

Do it slow
Desegregation
Do it slow

Mass participation
Do it slow

Reunification

Do it slow

Do things gradually

Do it slow

But bring more tragedy

Do it slow

Why don't you see it
Why don't you feel it
I don't know I don't know

You don't have to live next to me

Just give me my equality

Cuase Everybody knows about Mississippi

Everybody knows about Alabama
Everybody knows about Mississippi Goddam

That's it
