Southern trees

hear strange fruit

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

The scent of magnolia

sweet and fresh

Then the sudden smell

of burning flesh

Here's 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 .....
