So many say that they hate you
Awaiting the north they can leave to
But I find you innocent, darling
A warm night with your waters sparkling
And the shady green oaks of the south
Not the fury they put in your mouth
Hold glory more than I could know
Hold a love only found down below
And the swamps never turned me away
They said, come in child, we've been waiting all day
It matters not to the land, to the silt and the sand
The way I behave
And the heron won't stop flight for me
Won't change his course and he won't choose to flee
It matters not to the land, to the silt and the sand
My abnormality
I'll say, for better or worse
They'll drive my corpse off in a hearse
Before I lose my true adoration
And have hatred on any occasion
For that jubilance I saw
On my very first Mardi Gras
Throw me something, something good
I caught every bead I could
And the swamps never turned me away
How could you blame the tall sugar cane
It matters not to the land, to the silt and the sand
The things that bring me shame
And the heron won't stop flight for me
Won't change his course and he won't choose to flee
It matters not to the land, to the silt and the sand
My abnormality
What has two thumbs and is one with the swine?
A politician smiling on a yard sign
Hand on the Bible, fingers crossed behind
Citing a hurtful line
But a Hurricane is coming
And she won't favor no one
It matters not to the land, it matters not to the land
What would the pastor think of my stance
On our political dance
The pendulum swing and every doggone thing
He's in a fiery trance
But the catfish out there swimming
They rolled their eyes when I tried to ask
'Cause it matters not to the land, it matters not to the land
And the swamps never turned me away
They said, come in child, we've been waiting all day
It matters not to the land, to the silt and the sand
The way I behave
And the heron won't stop flight for me
Won't change his course and he won't choose to flee
It matters not to the land, to the silt and the sand
My abnormality
It matters not to the land
It matters not to the land
And the heron won't stop flight for me
It matters not to the land
It matters not to the land, to the land, to the land
