I never saw your face But I can tell you’re there And waiting at the Right Hand Satan laughs But I can swear I hear all The saints on their way down Here come the Shirts in Brown and Black With the flashing lights They’re hiding In different colors in the dead of night They’re running Waller County, Texas where 4,000 died And down in Jackson, Mississippi they don’t have to hide But innocence is alive And it’s coming back one day Oh, yes it is Here come them boys in black and white With the kerosene It’s been the same evil power since in ‘63 They hang in Homewood, Alabama with the whitest sheets And in Montgomery County, Maryland from a sapling tree But innocence is alive And it’s coming back one day I don’t think you’re gonna get away With the Seal I can hear them singing Kindra Chapman (we’re coming back) And brother Andre Jones (we’re coming back) we’re coming back Lennon Lacy (we’re coming back) I can here him Sandra Bland (we’re coming back) we’re coming back And Roosevelt Pernell (we’re coming back) Keith Warren (we’re coming back) Alfred Wright (we’re coming back) We’re coming back and any day now, it won’t be long The hand that brings the gavel down Is the hand that ties the noose The hand that finds you behind And ties the thirteen loops But that hand is gonna fold The day is coming soon When we fill it full of dust And resurrect the truth But innocence is alive And it’s coming back one day Oh, yes it is, yes it is
