Now take that rich boy who stays home all day, hehe He's got so much, he really ain't got nothing to say I'm on the streets and I cover the whole town Ain't got no money, but you can't keep me down! No way! Please don't talk about the plans you've made I've made my plans for me You might lock me up, but I'm gonna break free- You can't keep a good man down! You can't keep a good man down, like I said now- You can't keep a good man down, believe me Don't get tough 'cause I can play too rough- You can't keep a good man down!
