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
[x2]
[Chorus: x2]
The KKK took my baby away
They took her away
Away from me
Now I don't know
Where my baby can be
They took her from me
They took her from me
I don't know
Where my baby can be
They took her from me
They took her from me
Ringy, ringy, ringy
Up the President
And find out
Where my baby went
Ringy, ringy, ringy
Up the FBI
And find out if
My baby's alive
Yeah, yeah, yeah
oh oh oh oh oh oh
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
[x2]
[Chorus: x3]
The KKK took my baby away
They took my girl
They took my baby away

Review about The KKK Took My Baby Away Johnny and joey | Reviewer: fallinskater334 | 2/18/09
guys...this song isnt about johnny and joey girl thing, this song was written way beofre this happein between them and would joey would wanna perform this around johnny????? if this is what the song is about?
Entirely different meaning | Reviewer: Rachel | 2/14/09
This song has nothing to do with the Kul Klux Klan, and I sincerely doubt it would have ever been recorded if it was. And also, it is unfair to say this song shouldn't be posted because of something that happened to you.
Andrew | Reviewer: Drew | 12/23/08
Andrew, even if this was about the KKK, I don't get your point. Songs that have some relationship to real loss should be censored because they deal with real emotions? Music comes from the pain and joy of life, especially the pain.
Should we hide the lyrics to Leader of the Pack (as just one of a million obvious examples) in deference to victims of motorcycle accidents? I lost a close family member recently to drug related homicide but I'd never want to take away all the songs about related losses from the world. Embrace what the music says to you, but you don't have to listen to it (or read the lyrics) if you don't want to.
I'm sorry for your loss. I understand how suddenly things take on new and terrible meanings when you're going through a loved one's passing. We all cope differently, but to try to take art from the world will make no one's life better.
yeah its not about the KKK | Reviewer: Skasnotdead | 11/1/07
ur right it's about how johnny "stole" joey's girlfriend and later married her. the reason why he wrote KKK is because he had a KKK card of some sort and was jokingly racist toward black people.
NOT ABOUT KLU KLUX KLAN! | Reviewer: Jennie | 9/4/07
This song is not actually about the KKK. Look up the history. It's about Joey and Johnny and the "KKK" refers to a political party. It's a kind of symbolism.
Anyway, this is a great song and one of my favorites.
OMG | Reviewer: T.HUBB | 8/1/07
Should really learn the history about the song before you Criticize it...! This is a great song...
Sorry about your KKK rundown..BUt Hey these ARE just lyrics about the two bro's... Get with it
hmmm | Reviewer: Anonymous | 6/12/07

to the guy above | Reviewer: lydia | 5/29/07
who is bent about "posting so everyone could see" i understand what you went thru was horrible. but. come on, it's a song. if anything you should be kinder than anyone else about the song. how did you come across it anyway? jeez. let's be a little more kind, people.
i cant believe that guy hates this song he must be a stupid doosh
truth | Reviewer: bsfs | 3/20/07
This song had been made to describe what Joey was felling about , johnny betrayal. Johnny took his girlfriend and joey never forgave him because of that
