Lyrics:
c boy is born in hard time Mississippi
Surrounded by four walls that ain't so pretty
His parents give him love and affection
To keep him strong
baby; how can you get by?
Lonely boy, don't you live your life in someone else's eyes
Lonely girl, don't you worry, babe; how can you get by?
Lonely
A boy is born in hard time Mississippi
Surrounded by four walls that ain't so pretty
His parents give him love and affection
To keep him strong
knocked me off my stool
Said hang around I'll show you things they don't teach in school
Across the way an old blues man was playing on the street
Well
still you love to play when your feeling blue
That faded rose that's all dried out
Those Bukowski poems we couldn't live without
Your high school picture
good
D is for Drake, guess he lives like old kings would
E is Esmerine, what's the genre there, who knows
F is for Feist, rich and wins all the Junos
G
And she don't need much to get by
It's been a long, long time since I felt that way
Maybe all the way back to high school
But lately I've felt like an old
Well its hard to be cool when your still in High School
You got the old man jacking you around
And he tells you what to do
Gives your opinions
the fame, won't you?
You would give that pussy up to a lame, won't you?
Like a old school, I re-did the frame on you
I got my old shooters with me and they
We will fight when the night is done
We live our lives tonight as one
We live our lives tonight as one, one
I'm a bad mother-, shout your mouth
A boy is born in Hardtime Mississippi
Surrounded by four walls that ain't so pretty
His parents give him love and affection
To keep him strong,
breath stinkin' in my jaws
Ring, ring, ring, quiet, y'all, incomin' call
Plus this my homie from high school, he gettin' by
It's time to bury another
stay down just to live a better way
How many blacks gotta die by the hands of another
Don't you understand that man's the same color so that man is
A boy is born in hard time Mississippi
Surrounded by four walls that ain't so pretty
His parents give him love and affection
To keep him strong
a home in the wilderness
Built a cabin and a winter store
And he plowed up the ground by the cold lake shore
The other travelers came walking down
The outcasts of the school community
Become the outcasts of society
They live on the fringes
Work in the shadows
Are supported by the underground
I started school in a worn, torn, dress that somebody threw out (somebody threw out)
I knew the way it felt to always live in doubt
To be without
I remember waitin' by the curb with Mr. Murphy
When daddy picked me up from school his eyes were red
We drove to the hospital in a hurry
Where my
(God put a song in the heart of an angel and softly she sang it to me)
You know I get to thinking a lotta times about back when I was a boy
The old
have done
Stole a few cars, never got caught
Started some fights in the scrimmage
We got caught up in the image
Of playing young rebels by
you can't leave someone
In the middle of a dance floor all alone
In the middle of an old school country song
Right when I was just about to lean
a home in the wilderness
He built a cabin and a winter store
And he ploughed up the ground by the cold lake shore
And the other travellers came
Ridin' on her bicycle to school
A little girl out breakin' all the rules
She don't care about the birds and the bees
She's too busy skinnin' both
conceptualize human beings
My auntie is a man now
I think I'm old enough to understand now
Drinking Paul Masson with her hat turned backwards
