My momma said 'Son you know you'll get nowhere, |
|
you'll never get a life with your long hair' |
|
I ain't cut out for no suit and no tie, |
|
and that's the way that I'll live |
|
and the way that I'll die, |
|
Way that I live, |
|
way that I'll die |
|
There ain't no better |
|
There ain't no better |
|
Way that I live |
|
Way that I'll die |
|
C'mon step around me |
|
Step around me. |
|
I choose my clothes 'cos I like the way they look, |
|
Won't get caught up on no fashion hook |
|
Won't eat that same old stuff when I want a slice of pie |
|
and that's the way that I live |
|
and the way that I'll die |
|
Say what I like 'cos I mean what I say |
|
Bow down to no tin god to help me on my way |
|
You can't sell me anything I ain't willing to buy |
|
and that's the way that I live |
|
and the way that I die. |
|
(gonna live before I die 'cos I'm a long time gone) |
