Stop foolin’ wid pray
Stop foolin' wid prat
When black face is lifted
Lawd turnin’ away
Yo’ head ain’t no apple
Fo’ danglin’ from a tree
Fo' danglin' from a tree
Yo’ body no carcass
For barbacuin’ on a spree
Stand on yo’ feet
Club gripped ‘tween yo’ hands
Club gripped 'tween yo' hands
Spill dere blood too
Show ‘em yo’s is a man’s
Stop foolin' wid prat
When black face is lifted
Lawd turnin’ away
Yo’ head ain’t no apple
Fo’ danglin’ from a tree
Fo' danglin' from a tree
Yo’ body no carcass
For barbacuin’ on a spree
Stand on yo’ feet
Club gripped ‘tween yo’ hands
Club gripped 'tween yo' hands
Spill dere blood too
Show ‘em yo’s is a man’s
