The Ramones was an American punk rock band that formed in the New York City neighborhood of Forest Hills, Queens in 1974. This group consisted of four members they were Joey, Dee Dee, Johnny, and Tommy.
Specifically about this song, it was originally sung by Ramones and being released in 1981. The protagonist sings that his girlfriend has been kidnapped by the Ku Klux Klan on her way to Los Angeles for the holidays and pleads with the listener to call federal authorities to find out where she is and whether she is still alive.
According to Ramones lore, Joey wrote the song after Johnny stole his girlfriend Linda, who he later married. According to Joey’s brother Michael Leigh, the true inspiration for the song was Joey’s former girlfriend Wilna, an African-American woman he dated in the early 1970s until their parents’ objections tore them apart. The basic melody of the song had been floating around for a little while (inspired by Cheap Trick’s “He’s a Whore”) and the tune was completely finished by the time that Joey broke up with Linda. Still, when Joey spat out the lyrics on tour after the split, it was hard to not think they were aimed squarely at Johnny. (www.rollingsto...)
