[00:00.99]Your Honor Gentlemen of the Jury
[00:03.68]
[00:04.56]And good people of Georgia
[00:06.08]
[00:07.36]There is a farmhouse in Marietta
[00:10.54]
[00:11.15]Kinda battered and forlorn
[00:15.02]And in that farmhouse fourteen years ago
[00:18.67]
[00:19.19]A girl named Mary was born
[00:22.36]
[00:24.49]And she would dance in fields of cotton
[00:27.87]
[00:28.52]She had a tree where she could play
[00:31.67]
[00:32.31]But when her Daddy died two years ago
[00:36.59]Mary and her Mama moved away
[00:39.59]
[00:41.91]It's only twenty miles from Marietta
[00:45.41]
[00:46.06]To a fact'ry in the center of this town
[00:48.85]
[00:49.84]And twenty miles was all it took
[00:53.43]To strike that sweet girl down
[00:57.71]
[01:00.17]People of Atlanta fought for freedom to their graves
[01:03.03]And now their city is a fact'ry
[01:05.17]And their children are it's slaves
[01:07.74]People of Atlanta swing their city gates wide
[01:11.09]And look at what you've wrought
