Mississippi in 61 they watched his daddy die[00:00:01]
Guided by the light of a burning cross that lit the delta sky[00:00:06]
Kevin and Willie ten years old they were best of friends[00:00:13]
The only way you could tell them[00:00:20]
Apart was the color of their skin[00:00:22]
Come on Willie Kevin screamed lets got out of here[00:00:27]
Willie´s numb can´t even run frozen there with fear[00:00:33]
So Kevin takes off through[00:00:41]
The woods yelling I´ll be back for you[00:00:43]
Running fast out of breath[00:00:47]
Can´t stop and rest his daddy would know[00:00:48]
What to do[00:00:51]
And rushing through the door he sees the eyes of a man[00:00:53]
His daddy´s washing the blood out of[00:01:00]
A sheet but it won´t come off his hands[00:01:03]
And the blood still runs down Cherokee Highway[00:01:07]
A senseless river filled with all they shared[00:01:14]
Just two dark sides to Cherokee Highway[00:01:20]
But black or white the blood still runs red[00:01:27]
Now the fire has set the fuse[00:01:38]
In a town that just won´t learn[00:01:40]
The word is out[00:01:44]
Make the white man pay gonna watch his farmhouse burn[00:01:45]
Midnight the flames begin Kevin´s daddy´s the first to rise[00:01:52]
So he grabs his gun and he grabs[00:01:57]
His wife but Kevin´s still inside[00:02:00]
But from the shadows comes a boy with darker skin[00:02:04]
Though they killed his daddy gonna save his friend[00:02:11]
He runs through the door as the house falls in[00:02:15]
And the blood still runs down Cherokee Highway[00:02:18]
A senseless river filled with all they shared[00:02:25]
Just two dark sides to Cherokee Highway[00:02:32]
But black or white the blood still runs red[00:02:38]
Standing in the ashes he sees what hate really is[00:02:55]
Two little bodies both burned black[00:03:02]
Can´t tell which child is his[00:03:05]
And the blood still runs down Cherokee Highway[00:03:10]
A senseless river filled with all they shared[00:03:17]
Just two dark sides to Cherokee Highway[00:03:24]
But black or white the blood still runs red[00:03:31]
Down Cherokee Highway[00:03:36]
It still runs red[00:03:40]
Down Cherokee Highway[00:03:43]
Ooo[00:03:47]
