Inner City Blues
Da-da-da-da, da-da, da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da, da-da, da-da-da-da
Da-da
Rockets, moon shots
Spend it on the have-nots
Money, we make it
'Fore we see it, you take it
Oh, make me wanna holler
The way they do my life
Make me wanna holler
The way they do my life
This ain't livin', this ain't livin'
No, no baby, this ain't livin'
No, no, no, no
Inflation, no chance
To increase finance
Bills pile up sky-high
Send that boy off to die
Oh, make me wanna holler
The way they do my life
Make me wanna holler
The way they do my life
Oh
Da-da-da-da-da, da-da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da-da, da-da-da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da-da, da-da-da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da-da, da-da-da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da-da, da-da-da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da-da, da-da-da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da-da, da-da-da-da-da-da
Hang-ups, let downs
Bad breaks, setbacks
Natural fact is
Oh, honey that I can't pay my taxes
Oh, make me wanna holler
And throw up both my hands
Yeah, makes me wanna holler
And throw up both my hands
Crime is increasing
Trigger-happy policing
Panic is spreading
God knows where we're heading
Oh, makes me wanna holler
They don't understand
Make me wanna holler
They don't understand
Da-da-da-da-da, da-da-da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da-da, da-da-da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da-da, da-da-da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da-da, da-da-da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da-da, da-da-da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da-da, da-da-da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da-da, da-da-da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da-da, da-da-da-da-da-da
Da, aw!
Mother, mother
Everybody think we're wrong
Who are they to judge us
Simply 'cause we wear our hair long
Ooh
Da-da-da-da, da-da, da-da-da-da
Da-da
Rockets, moon shots
Spend it on the have-nots
Money, we make it
'Fore we see it, you take it
Oh, make me wanna holler
The way they do my life
Make me wanna holler
The way they do my life
This ain't livin', this ain't livin'
No, no baby, this ain't livin'
No, no, no, no
Inflation, no chance
To increase finance
Bills pile up sky-high
Send that boy off to die
Oh, make me wanna holler
The way they do my life
Make me wanna holler
The way they do my life
Oh
Da-da-da-da-da, da-da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da-da, da-da-da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da-da, da-da-da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da-da, da-da-da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da-da, da-da-da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da-da, da-da-da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da-da, da-da-da-da-da-da
Hang-ups, let downs
Bad breaks, setbacks
Natural fact is
Oh, honey that I can't pay my taxes
Oh, make me wanna holler

Make me wanna holler
They don't understand
Da-da-da-da-da, da-da-da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da-da, da-da-da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da-da, da-da-da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da-da, da-da-da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da-da, da-da-da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da-da, da-da-da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da-da, da-da-da-da-da-da
Da-da-da-da-da, da-da-da-da-da-da
Da, aw!
Mother, mother
Everybody think we're wrong
Who are they to judge us
Simply 'cause we wear our hair long
Ooh
