Am  Em (x16)

Verse 1:

Am                  Em
 Walking along just kicking stones,
Am              Em
 Minding my own business.
       Am           Em
I come face to face, with my foe;
    Am                      Em
Dis-guised In violence from head to toe.

Bridge 1:

  Am                 Em
I holla and I bawl, (Ku Klux Klan),
        Am                 Em
But dem naw let me go, now.
   Am                       Em
To let me go was not dem in-tention.
            Am                   Em
Dem seh one nigger the less; the better for the show.
Am                           Em
 Stand strong black skin and take your blow.

Chorus 1:

         Am      Em
It's the Ku, the Ku Klux Klan,

 Here to stamp out blackman, yah.

It's the Ku, the Ku Klux Klan.

Verse 2:

Am                            Em
 To be taught a lesson not to walk alone,
      Am                      Em
I was waiting for the Good Sa-maritan.
    Am                           Em
But waiting was hopeless; it was all in vain;
    Am           Em
The Ku Klux Klan; back again.

But dem naw let me go now.

To let me go was not dem in-tention.
            Am                   Em
Dem seh one nigger the less; the better for the show.
Am                           Em
 Stand strong black skin and take your blow.

         Am      Em
It's the Ku, the Ku Klux Klan,

 Things can't remain the same, yah no!

Verse 3:

          Am                             Em
Black-man do unto the Klan as they would do to you;
   Am                  Em
In this case hate they neighbour.
      Am           Em
Those cowards only kill who they fear;
       Am                                 Em
That's why they hide behind the hoods and cloaks they wear.

Em                Am        Em
 Ku Klux Klan, oh no, oh no;

 Here to stamp out black-man, yah.
Am                     Em

Am                       Em
 Things can't remain the same, yah no!
