"Throw the Jew down the well"

From the Guide to Country Music - Borat shot to world wide fame following this clip in August 2004. At the time BoratOnline reported on this with the following news item:

Hot on the heels of Borat's interview with James Broadwater, our man from Kazakhstan pulled his most bold stunt yet. Deep in the USA he went to a country music club and performed what he said was a traditional Kazakhstani folk song. The lyrics went from complaining about the state of the countries traffic system to insighting countrymen to grab Jews by "their horns" and throw them down wells!

Of course Sacha (Borat) can get away with this (just) being Jewish himself, but the reaction of the crowd was incredible. One or two did look a little shocked, but the vast majority joined in on the chorus.

Lyrics - In my country there is problem

Verse
In my country there is problem,
And that problem is transport.
It take very very long,
Because Kazakhstan is big.

 

Chorus 1
Throw transport down the well (repeat line)
So my country can be free (repeat line)
We must make travel easy (repeat line)
Then we’ll have a big party (repeat line)

 

Verse 2
In my country there is problem
And that problem is the Jew
They take everybody money
And they never give it back

 

Chorus 2
Throw the jew down the well (repeat line)
So my country can be free (repeat line)
You must grab him by his horns (repeat line)
Then we have a big party (repeat line)

 

Verse 3
If you see the Jew coming
You must be carefull of his teeth
You must grab him by his money
And I tell you what to do

 

(Repeat Chorus 2 twice)

 

Throw the jew down the well

So my country can be free

You must grab him by his horns

Then we have a big party
