Brother man nowadays livin' in the ghetto |
|
Where the dangers sure enough real. |
|
Well when he's out late at night, and if he's got his head on right, |
|
Well, I lay you 9 to 5 he's walking with steel. |

Brother Man says he's 'fraid of gangsters |
|
Messing with people just for fun |
|
He don't want to be next. |
|
He got a family to protect. |
|
So just last week he bought himself a gun. |
|
Everybody got a pistol, everybody got a .45 |
|
And the philosophy seem to be, |
|
At least as near as |
|
I can see, |
|
When other folks give up theirs, |
|
I'll give up mine. |

This is a violent civilization; |
|

To defend our home, to defend our life, |

Got to understand to get it in hand about the guns. |
|
Everybody's got a pistol. |
|
Everybody got a .45. |
|
The philosophy seems to be, |
|
At least as near as |
