Ain't that bad! Dancin' the funky chicken Eatin' ribs and tips Diggin' all the latest sounds And drinkin' gin in sips...

Puttin' down that do-rag
Tightenin' up my 'fro
Wrappin' up in Blackness
Don't I shine and glow ?

Hearin' The Prime Minister
Cookin' beans and rice
Goin' to the opera
Checkin' out ...  ...

Now ain't they bad ?
An' ain't they Black ?
An' ain't they Black ?
an' ain't they Bad ?
An' ain't they bad ?
An' ain't they Black ?
An' ain't they fine !

Arthur who? on the tennis court
Mohammed Ali in the ring
Barak Obama and Andrew Young
Black men doing their thing.

Dressing in purples and pinks and greens
Exotic as rum and Cokes
Living our lives with flash and style
Ain't we colourful folks ?

Now ain't we bad ?
An' ain't we Black ?
An' ain't we Black ? 
An' ain't we bad ?
An' ain't we bad ?
An' ain't we Black ?'
An' ain't we fine ?
