Songtext

1:07Southern trees bear strange fruit
1:14Blood on the leaves and blood at the root
1:21Black bodies swinging in the southern breeze
1:30Strange fruit hanging from the poplar trees
1:44Pastoral scene of the gallant south
1:53The bulging eyes and the twisted mouth
2:00Scent of magnolias sweet and fresh
2:08Then the sudden smell of burning flesh
2:16Here is fruit for the crows to pluck
2:23For the rain to gather for the wind to suck
2:31For the sun to rot for the trees to drop
2:44Here is a strange and bitter crop
Southern trees bear strange fruit
Blood on the leaves and blood at the root
Black bodies swinging in the southern breeze
Strange fruit hanging from the poplar trees
Pastoral scene of the gallant south
The bulging eyes and the twisted mouth
Scent of magnolias  sweet and fresh
Then the sudden smell of burning flesh
Here is fruit for the crows to pluck
For the rain to gather  for the wind to suck
For the sun to rot  for the trees to drop
Here is a strange and bitter crop
