The Lyrics
The antebellum view
ain’t passed with time.
They never stopped the fight, this crew.
In their minds it’s
1859ish.
You know, they can’t stand it,
that they were brought down.
They like the plantation
and docile darkies hoein’ the ground.
The antebellum view
ain’t passed with time. . .
much time.
It’s a view
that this crew’s
gonna hew
today to—long past rout.
They still live there:
nineteenth century
and still want out. . .
so secede!!
The antebellum view
is in their mind.
ain’t passed with time.
They never stopped the fight, this crew.
In their minds it’s
1859ish.
You know, they can’t stand it,
that they were brought down.
They like the plantation
and docile darkies hoein’ the ground.
The antebellum view
ain’t passed with time. . .
much time.
It’s a view
that this crew’s
gonna hew
today to—long past rout.
They still live there:
nineteenth century
and still want out. . .
so secede!!
The antebellum view
is in their mind.
