Strange Fruit

Lyrics
Southern trees bear strange fruit Blood on the leaves Blood at the root Black bodies swinging in the southern breeze Strange fruit hanging from the poplar trees ♪ Pastoral scene of the gallow south ♪ The bulging eyes and the twisted mouth ♪ The scent of magnolia sweet and fresh Then the sudden smell of burning flesh ♪ Here is a fruit for the crows to pluck For the rain to gather For the wind to suck For the sun to rot For the tree to drop Here is a strange and bitter crop
