    Hey Nelly, Nelly, come to the window
    Hey Nelly, Nelly, look at what I see
    He's ridin' into town on a sway-back mule
    He's got a tall black hat and he looks like a fool
    He sure is talkin' like he's been to school, and it's 1853
    Hey Nelly, Nelly, listen what he's sayin'
    Hey Nelly, Nelly, he says it's gettin' late
    And he says them black folks should be free
    To walk around the same as you and me
    He's talkin' about a thing he calls democracy, and it's 1858
    Hey Nelly, Nelly, hear the band a-playing
    Hey Nelly, Nelly, hand me down my gun
    For the men are cheerin' and the boys are too
    They're all puttin' on their coats of blue
    I can't sit around here and talk to you, and it's 1861
    Hey Nelly, Nelly, come to the window
    Hey Nelly, Nelly, I've come home alive
    My coat of blue is stained with red
    And the man in the tall black hat is dead
    But we sure will remember all the things he said, in 1865
    Hey Nelly, Nelly, come to the window
    Hey Nelly, Nelly, look at what I see
    I see white folks and colored walkin' side by side
    Thy're walking in a column that's a century wide
    It was a long and a hard and a bloody ride, in 1963
