Up In The Heah |
| I used to live in the country, brought up by the old folks' rules; |
| My pa was a preaching pastor, and my ma taught Sunday school… |
| I was told about devilish people who lived just to do no good; |
| All I knew was my religion, and how to serve the best I could… |
| I always knew about the son of evil — could lead a woman to no good… |
| Mm-hmm… |
| He used to get me from the church window, telling me I wouldn’t be missed |
| Promising we’d just hold hands, and maybe just one little kiss… |
| It was hard on me, backsliding — I’m disowned by my family |
| But I’d do it all over again, that’s how good it is to me… |
| But now, I’m the daughter of evil, and I’m trying to get you up in heah, |
| up in heah… |
| Oh, up in heah, up in heah… |
| Up in heah! |
| (Up in heah…) Oh, up in heah… (Up in heah…) |
| Up in heah! |
| (Up in heah…) Oh, oh… (Up in heah…) |
| It’s hard on you when you leave home, and your people say you’re on your own |
| When you’re walkin' in the streets, and you haven’t a meal all week… |
| Oh! |
| Oh, oh… |
| Oh, up in heah! |
| (Up in heah!) Up in heah… (Up in heah!) |
| It’s cold on this path of evil — the dew falls heavy and hard; |
| While I wait at bars and grills, commercial love, commercial thrill… |
| But I remember the righteous living, and doing all I knew for good; |
| If I could change this corruption, you know I would if I only could… |
| But now, now, I’m the daughter of evil, and I’m trying to get you up in heah, |
| up in heah… |
| Oh, up in heah… (Up in heah…) |
| Up in heah! |
| (Up in heah…) Oh, up in heah… (Up in heah…) |
| Up in heah! |
| (Up in heah…) Oh, oh… (Up in heah…) |
| Up in heah, up in heah, oh, up in heah… (Up in heah…) |
| Woo, up in heah! |
| (Up in heah…) Up in heah… (Up in heah…) |
| Oh! |
| Oh, oh, oh… |
