Hung Brown Man-

He was a stout yet tall statue of a man
Except he hung long he was wrong color
A slave intend misconduct disobedience
Hung brown man
Whom be the master whose be a slave
Stand tall oppress man be all you can be
A dead tall brown man being hung on a tree
Hung brown man
Hung he hangs by the hands of the Klan
A dead hung brown man
