Lyrics:
a quarter
Half price
Well, my telephone rang it would not stop
It's President Kennedy callin' me up
He said, My friend, Bob, what do we need to make
the given order.
Though they smile and tell us all of us are brothers,
Never was it true this side of Jordan.
Take off your old coat and roll up your
judge a man by the tone of his skin
It's crazy
Cause he has a heart
Like you have a heart and
Why can't we be color blind
You know we should
Be
a livin' he's a 'Lousiana
man Muskrat hides hangin' by the dozen,
even got a little bitty muskrat cousin Got 'em out
dryin' in the hot hot sun,
tomorrow
I saw a corner blind man standing
Selling pencils in the storm
He was alone I thought the storm was all he had
I was ashamed, I felt so sorry and sad
Hey, I-
Hey I got all my brothers in the booth with me
You know how we comin' nigga, OTF, bitch, big Doodie lo
I swear to God, I don't feel them
see flashes of life
Time started ticking it's the end of my life
Blind fo' his eyes when he look at god
Behold no man or your life destroyed
He
all sensitive
Wait a minute, hold on, is it me
Or do he look like a banana with braids and clothes on?
A bitch-made man now, how you gonna connect
on his toes
And then he wriggled it up
All around his nose
Guaranteed to blow your mind
Playin' all that music, yet keepin' time
Where in the world did he
understand it, Oh what's come over me
But I'm not gonna worry, no not anymore
'Cause when a man's in love, he's only got one story
That's why my love is
the yard, it's hard, but you're in
So you do your time and never let the time do ya
He lost his mind that's what the time'll do to ya
A brother in the box
to admit to something
If all it's gonna cause is pain
Truth and my lies right now are falling like the rain
So let the river run
He's comin' home with
to the ceiling and sawdust on the floor;
Friendly shadows.
I saw that there was just one old man sittin' at the bar.
And in the mirror I could see him
a pine tree by my knees
Sunshine through the shade
Nobody knows what it's all about
It's too much man - let it all hang out
Saw a man walking upside
cookin' all morning and you haven't touched a single bite"
"That nice young preacher, Brother Taylor, dropped by today"
"Said he'd be pleased to have
an uptown lawyer
Danny, he's a medicine man
And me, I'm just the singer
In a long haired rock and roll band
Through the years and miles between us
It's
I saw it myself
It was all in a morning blaze
Burned by the moon
There was too many left to live
A man in a car with the lights on bright
Made
up on another's
All I can do is try to open his eyes and help the brother
He chose the wrong way and that's the route he took
Born and brought up
cookin' all morning and you haven't touched a single bite"
"That nice young preacher, Brother Taylor, dropped by today"
"Said he'd be pleased to have
cookin' all morning and you haven't touched a single bite"
"That nice young preacher, Brother Taylor, dropped by today"
"Said he'd be pleased to have
this sprawling Tower of Babel
Came a young man, confused and alone
Determined and bound for America
And carrying all that he owned
Sometimes when I
(Ayo, Bans, what you cookin'?)
Yeah, ah, woah (Saucey)
It was five times a nigga hit my brother with that iron
He ain't die and you know he
cookin' all morning and you haven't touched a single bite"
"That nice young preacher, Brother Taylor, dropped by today"
"Said he'd be pleased to have
He tore down the work of 17 years brick by brick
And stone by stone
No hammer was swingin' cause cheatin' and drinkin'
Don't need no help wreckin'
