Lyrics:Jimmy Buffett/Buzz Cason | |
Music:Jimmy Buffett/Buzz Cason | |
Why is he cussin' and calling disgustin' | |
The city that is now his home | |
He never smiles or keeps up with styles | |
He is black and he is all alone | |
And you ask why he's this way | |
Well brother you're too blind to see | |
It's 'cause Ellis Dee ain't free like you and me | |
Get out of the street don't get high on my beat | |
Go on home the policeman warns | |
Just 'cause you're poor why do you declare war | |
I can't help the way you were born | |
Why are they holdin' him down | |
He's spending his life on his knees | |
'Cause Ellis Dee ain't free like you and me | |
Chorus: | |
Got to help Ellis | |
Got to help Ellis | |
You know we got to help Ellis Ellis Dee | |
Try and help Ellis you and me | |
Got to get to Ellis hear his plea | |
Try and help Ellis get free | |
Ellis got hooked he got booked and he shook | |
In his cold little shivery cell | |
While out on the street in that same funky beat | |
Mister pusher was doing well | |
And Ellis Junior cries tears his daddy can't see | |
'Cause Ellis Dee ain't free like you and me | |
Chorus | |
'Cause Ellis Dee ain't free like you and me | |
No Ellis Dee ain't free like you and me |
