| Mother Mother, take me to where life’s sweeter
|
| Ooh she said, you she said, me I said, yes she said
|
| Don’t mess me around

|
| The whip and the slap ripped the shirt off my back
|
| My skin did dry up and crack
|
| I’ve coconut shells for shoes on my feet
|
| Talk about the state I’m in and these are the things I’m thinking about
|
