Lyrics

Oxford town, Oxford town
 Everybody's got their heads bowed down
 Sun don't shine above the ground
 Ain't a-goin' down to Oxford town
 He went down to Oxford town
 Guns and clubs followed him down
 All because his face was brown
 Better get away from Oxford town
 Oxford town around the bend
 Come to the door, he couldn't get in
 All because of the colour of his skin
 What do you think about that, my friend?
 Me, my gal, and my gal's son
 We got met with a tear gas bomb
 Don't even know why we come
 We're goin' back where we came from
 Oxford town in the afternoon
 Everybody's singin' a sorrowful tune
 Two men died 'neath the Mississippi moon
 Somebody better investigate soon.
