Dm             A#
Trouble in town
              C      Dm         A#
Because they cut my brother down
            C            Dm
Because my sister can't wear her crown
           A#              C         Dm A# C
There's trouble, there's trouble in town

Blood on the beat (Oh-oh)
Oh my goodness, there's blood on the beat
Law of the jungle or the law of the street
There's blood on, there's blood on the beat

Chorus:
A#             C    Am
And I get no shelter
              A#
And I get no peace
             C     Dm   A# C
And I never get release

Trouble in town (Oh-oh)
Because they hung my Brother Brown
Because their system just keep you down
There's trouble, there's trouble in town

Chorus
A#
Eh,
              C      Am
And I get no comfort
             A#
And I get no name
               C        Dm
Everything is gettin' strained

Jikelele, jikelele
Jikelele, jikelele
Jikelele, jikelele
Jikelele, jikelele
