Little Child Runnin' Wild |
Little child |
Runnin' wild |
Watch a while |
You see he never smiles |
Broken home |
Father gone |
Mama tired |
So he’s all alone |
Kind of sad |
Kind of mad |
Ghetto child |
Thinkin' he’s been had |
In the back of his mind he’s sayin' |
Didn’t have to be here |
You didn’t have to love for me While I was just a nothin' child |
Why couldn’t they just let me be Let me be, let me be, let me be One room shack |
On the alley-back |
Control, I’m told |
From across the track |
Where is the mayor |
Who’ll make all things fair |
He lives outside |
Our polluted air |
And I didn’t have to be here |
You didn’t have to love for me While I was just a nothin' child |
Why couldn’t they just let me be Let me be, let me be, let me be |
I got a jones |
Runnin' through ma' bones |
I’m sorry son |
All your money’s gone |
Painful rip |
In my upper hip |
I guess it’s time |
To take another trip |
Don’t care what nobody say |
I got to take the pain away |
It’s getting worser day by day |
And all my life has been this way |
Can’t reason with the pusherman |
Finance is all that he understands |
'You junkie, mama cries, you know' |
Would rip her, but I love her so Love her so, now… |
