lyrics

Tuesday's come but the Mississippi River won't rise
Tuesday's come but the Mississippi River won't rise
Backbreaking labor with the sunrise in your eye
Tuesday's come but the Mississippi River won't rise

Strange fruit hanging from the poplar trees
Wicked wind blowing in the leaves
Mama tell me what does it mean

Swing low swing low
Swing low swing low

Tuesday's come but the Mississippi River won't rise
Tuesday's come but the Mississippi River won't rise
Backbreaking labor with the sunrise in your eye
Tuesday's come but the Mississippi River won't rise

Strange fruit hanging from the poplar trees
Wicked wind blowing in the leaves
Mama tell me what does it mean

Swing low swing low
Swing low swing low

Oh St. Peter where are you now
Newborn babies are cryin' loud
But the river won't rise

Swing low swing low
Swing low swing low
Swing low swing low
