George Jackson, George
The day I heard George Jackson died
Blood was in my eye
Come mek we trample down the system
Was my battle cry
He was advised in pleading guilty
For the little monkey dollars he stole
And bared the scars of their injustice
The truth was never told ? no way 'cause
They framed him yes they framed him
Backraw back up George
Accused of killing a prison guard
Can't tame him no can't tame him
So dem lock up George
Can't change him no can't change him
Fighting for a cause now
 
George Jackson George Jackson
George Jackson George Jackson
Malicious Unjust society
He became revolutionary George
George Jackson
 
Seven year confinement putting up resistance
Because he was demanding his rights
Down there in the dungeon
Granting him no pardon
His parole was out of sight, yeah
They frame him yes they frame him
No three cheers for Uncle George
Torture and darkness was all he saw
Baton clap, truncheon make no applause
Rebelling for a cause now
 
George Jackson George Jackson
George Jackson George Jackson
Malicious Unjust society
He became revolutionary George
George Jackson
Jackson & Jackson & Jackson
I want you all to know
They never let him go
Want you all to know
They never let him go now, alright yeah heh!
