lyrics

Atticus Finch was a father of two and a light in a dim town
Everyone in Maycomb knew he was different
One of the finest around
A well-read man with a measured word in any season
He was impartial and thought that the truth was worth believin

How could a man of the law be so riddled with grace?
That's just his way, but that's not what he'd say

Jean Louise stay away from that Radley house
It’s not our business if the neighbours don’t wanna come out
Mind your brother, mind Calpurnia, mind me
Don’t mind this town or the way of this world
And remember it’s a sin to kill a mockingbird

Atticus Finch took a stand for a man
With a face not coloured right
Everyone in Maycomb thought that he'd lost it
He never could tell black from white
An innocent man leant his good hand
To a woman who would never confess
And with the verdict bell, Tom Robinson's face fell
But Atticus wouldn't give up just yet

Jean Louise stay away from that Robinson trial
It’s not your burden if the neighbours think less of us for a while
Mind your brother, mind Calpurnia, mind me
Don’t mind this town or the way of this world
And remember it’s a sin to kill a mockingbird

Well I'm sure that Atticus Finch has sinned
Though I never did see it take place
How could a man of the law be so riddled with grace?
