Paul Robeson - Scandalize My Name

I met my brother the other day,
I gave him my right hand,
And just as soon as ever my back was turned,
He scandalized my name.

Now do you call that a brother? No, no.
You call that a brother? No, no.
Call that a brother? No, no.
Scandalize my name.

I met my sister the other day,
I gave her my right hand,
And just as soon as ever my back was turned,
She, too, scandalized my name.

Now do you call that a sister? No, no.
You call that a sister? No, no.
Call that a sister? No, no.
Scandalize my name.

I met my preacher the other day,
I gave him my right hand,
And just as soon as ever my back was turned,
He, too, scandalized my name.

Now do you call that religion? No, no.
You call that religion? No, no.
Call that religion? No, no.
Scandalize my name.
