  • Walking along just kicking stones
    Minding my own business
    I come face to face, with my foe
    Disguised In violence from head to toe
    I holla and I bawl (Ku Klux Klan)
    But dem naw let me go now
    To let me go was not dem intention
    Dem seh one nigga the less
    The better for the show
    Stand strong black skin and take your blow
    It's the Ku, the Ku Klux Klan
    Here to stamp out blackman yah
    The Ku, the Ku Klux Klan heh!
    To be taught a lesson not to walk alone
    I was waiting for the Good Samaritan
    But waiting was hopeless
    It was all in vain
    The Ku Klux Klan back again
    I holla and I bawl (Ku Klux Klan)
    Dem naw let me go now
    Dem seh one nigga the less
    The better the show
    Stand strong blackskin and take your blow
    The Ku, Ku Klux Klan
    Rape, lynch, kill and maim
    Things can't remain the same yah no!

    Blackman do unto the Klan
    AS they would do to you
    In this case hate they neighbour
    Those cowards only kill who they fear
    That's why they hide behind
    The hoods and cloaks they wear
    I holla and I bawl, Ku Klux Klan
    Dem naw let me go no, Ku Klux Klan
    Oh no, oh no
    Here to stamp out black man yah
    Rape, lynch, kill and maim
    Things can't remain the same yah
    No, no, no, no Writer/s: DAVID ROBERT HINDS
