Come you Gphoney super-patriotic people that say
That Chating and fearing is my only way
That Gthis here country has got to be
/Bb /g /d G
You're thinking of your sales, you ain't thinking of me.
You're not Gthinking of any George Washington
You're not Cthinking of any Thomas Jefferson
But you Gsay that you are and you lie and mislead
You use their names for your aims, for Dyour selfish Ggreed.
GDon't speak to me G/Bbof your patriotism
When you Cthrow the Southern black G/Bbboy in prison
And you Gsay the only good niggers are the ones that have died
/g-bb /g /f /d G
Don't think I'll ever stand on your side.
Though you Gmake it so hard for me to love
My face will Cnever feel the slap of your glove
My hands Gwill never buy the cards that you play
/g-bb /g-bb /g /f /d G
My feet will never walk down the road that you lay.
Get out in Gthe open, stop standing afar
Let the whoCle world see what a hypocrite you are
I ain't jokinGg and it ain't no gag
/g-bb /g /f /d G
You bin hiding too long behind the American flag.
