I'm A White Boy |
Some folks call me a ramblin' man |
I do a lotta thumbin' and a kickin' cans |
And it wouldn’t do an ounce of good to call my name |
Cause daddy’s name wadn’t Willy Woodrow |
And I wadn’t born and raised in no ghetto |
Just a white boy lookin' for a place to do my thing |
Well I’m out to find me a wealthy woman |
And a line of work that don’t take no diploma |
I ain’t got much to lose but a lot to gain |
Well some might call me a goodtime fella |
I ain’t black and I ain’t yella |
Just a white boy lookin' for a place to do my thing |
Yeah I don’t want no handout livin' |
Don’t want any part of anything they’re givin' |
I’m proud and white and I’ve got a song to sing |
Well I’ve said a few things and I’ll admit it |
If you wanna get ahead you gotta hump and get it |
I’m a white boy lookin' for a place to do my thing |
Hump and git it now |
Yeah I’m a small town boy been around a little |
I like guitars and I like a fiddle |
And that’s the kinda soul it takes to fan my flame |
Well I’m a blue eyed Billy kinda frail and ruddy |
So I’ll have to work to be somebody |
I’m a white boy lookin' for a place to do my thing |
I don’t want no handout livin' |
And don’t want any part of anything they’re givin' |
I’m proud and white and I’ve got a song to sing |
Well I’ve said a few things and I’ll admit it |
If you wanna get ahead you gotta hump and get it |
I’m a white boy lookin' for a place to do my thing |
I’m a white boy lookin' for a place to do my thing |
