Lyrics

    She went away for the holidays
    Said she's going to L.A.
    But she never got there
    She never got there
    She never got there
    They say
    
    The KKK took my baby away
    they took her away, away from me
    
    I don't know where my baby can be
    They took her from me
    They took her from me
    
    Ring me up the President
    And find out where my baby went
    Ring me up the FBI and find out if
    My baby's alive
    
    Yeah yeah yeah
    Oh oh oh oh oh oh
    
    She went away for the holidays
    Said she's going to L.A.
    But she never got there
    She never got there
    She never got there
    They say
    
    The KKK took my baby away
    they took her away, away from me
