Sufjan Stevens
Jacksontown
[Verse 1: Sufjan Stevens & Katrina Kerns]
I'm, I'm, I'm not afraid of the black man running
He's got it right, he's got a better life coming
I don't care what the captain said
I fold it right at the top of my head
I lost my sight and the state packs in
I follow my heart and it leads me right to Jackson

[Chorus: Sufjan Stevens & Katrina Kerns]
Oh, Keller, oh, oh, oh
She gave us a medal, she gave us a map
Oh, Canner Row, oh, oh, oh
If seeing is right, then look where you're at

[Verse 2: Sufjan Stevens & Katrina Kerns]
I'm not afraid of Nichols Park
I ride the train and I ride it after dark
I'm not afraid to get it right
I turn around and I give it one more try
I said things that I meant to say
The bandstand chairs and the Dewey Day parade
I go out to the golden age
The spirit is right and the spirit doesn't change

[Chorus: Sufjan Stevens & Katrina Kerns]
Oh, Keller, oh, oh, oh
She gave us a medal, she gave us a map
Oh, Canner Row, oh, oh, oh
If seeing is right, then look where you're at
[Bridge: Katrina Kerns]
Oh, oh
Oh, oh
Oh, oh
Oh, oh

[Outro: Sufjan Stevens & Katrina Kerns]
I'm not afraid of the black man running
He's got it right, he's got a better life coming
I'm not afraid of the black man running
He's got it right, he's got a better life coming
I'm, I'm, I'm not afraid of the black man running
He's got it right, he's got a better life coming
I'm, I'm, I'm not afraid of the black man running
He's got it right, he's got a better life coming
I'm, I'm, I'm not afraid of the black man running
He's got it right, he's got a better life coming
I'm not afraid of the black man running
He's got it right, he's got a better life coming
Oh, Keller, oh, oh, oh
She gave us a medal, she gave us a map
Oh, Canner Row, oh, oh, oh
If seeing is right, then look where you're at
I'm, I'm
I'm, I'm
Oh, oh
Oh, oh
Oh, oh
Oh, oh
