Gm Dm D#
she cried when her little girl got off the train
Dm Am A#
her brothers and her sisters drove down from jackson , mississippi
Dm Am A#
in a great green hudson driven by a gentile they knew
Gm Dm D#
drinkin’ rye whiskey from a flask in the back seat
F C A#
tryin’ to do like the gentiles do

F C Dm A#
an american christian , god damn!
