Black nigger baby, black feet and shiny eyes,
Black all over to the bone and india rubber thighs,
Turn that nigger round and knock 'im the haid,
'Cause white folks say," We're gonna kill that nigger dead! "

The white folks eat the hog in the skillet,
Niggers was no-good,so very little in it,
Old Uncle Dicker-Dagger eat up the grease,say,
"Get up in the mawnin', I'll be free ! "

Black nigger baby gonna take care of myself,
Always carry a great big razor an a pistol in my vest,
Turn that nigger round and knock 'im the haid,
'Cause white folks say," We're gonna kill that nigger dead! "

Traduzione italiana
LO FACCIAMO SECCO QUEL NEGRO!

Negretto nero ,piedi neri e occhi lucenti,
Tutto nero fino all'osso, coscette di caucciù
Fallo girare quel negro e picchialo sulla zucca,
Dicono i bianchi," Lo facciamo secco quel negro! "

I bianchi mangiano il maiale in casseruola,
I negri niente bene, ne prendono cosi' poco,
Il Vecchio Zio Spadino - Trafficone si pappa il grasso e fa,
" Voi state su al mattino ,e io ho finito già "

Io, negretto nero,staro' bene attento a me stesso,
Porterò sempre un rasoio bello grande e una pistola nella giacca.
Fallo girare quel negro e picchialo sulla zucca,
Dicono i bianchi, "Lo facciamo secco quel negro !"
