Lyrics:
(how's the family)
(how's the family)
Mama, you tell me how's the family
And papa, tell me how thing's going by you
And little baby sister, I heard
ol' boy just don't fit
Well I can jump in a rosebush and come out smelling like sh
Those misters dressed in blue never done so right by me
Some
North on the map
Where's the love? I'm not in
The Black Eyed Peas
But I know we were all brought
Up on black eye peas
Rice, chicken, okra, plantain
coincide
Brothers cry for broken lives, mama come inside
'Cause our block is filled with danger
Used to be a close knit community but now we're all cold
And standin' by your children when you haven't proven karma wrong
Black is doin' all of the above then goin' corner shoppin'
Tryna help a lady cross the road
(Black flash)
Black flash over my own love
Tell me of my eyes
Black flash come though my own life
Telling these things
And I believe them
And I
This Year We Are Going To Be In Luck
You know I don’t cook cornbread too long
Don’t you worry cause them greens are on
Black-eyed peas and butter
Leave him paralyzed and agonized
Fellas, grab the thighs that's by your side
Say Mama-se, Mama-sa, Mama-macosa
(Mama-se, Mama-sa, Mama
This Year We Are Going To Be In Luck
You know I don't cook cornbread too long
Don't you worry cause them greens are on
Black-eyed peas and butter
Ridge"
"And now ya tell me Billie Joe's jumped off the Tallahatchie Bridge"
'n' Mama said to me "Child, what's happened to your appetite?"
"I've been
bugs, All the things down south I love
VERSE 2
Down south the Spanish moss grows, got a question mama knows
Black eyed peas on new years day, over yonder
answer this too
Love's gonna get ya, you know it's true, life's a bitch true
You best to backtrack and try to act Black and live
Not to be phony
you're a rockstar
My momma talkin' to me, tryna tell me how to live
White boy, white boy, in your cop car
But I don't listen to her, 'cause my head is
Carlito by the train tracks
Snipin' bitches out your favorite movies
Totin' choppas last week, open locker, man, they tried to shoot me
Need a hundred
Bunch of wax dummies, all you guys gonna melt
Live for your kids, die for yourself
Bottles in the sky if you ride for the wealth
Peas on the block,
Sister, every Mama to feel the light, it's shining bright, baby
Everybody, we got to live together, oh
Right on baby
Feel those Earth Blues coming
other way to word it got my feelings scurred and
By the, bullet of bad, the singer of sad, songs to make you long for your mom and your dad
Plaid class
Tryna rain, tryna rain on the thunder
Tell the storm I'm new
I'm a wall, come and march on the regular
Painting white flags blue
Lord forgive
this was a circus
Let me break your fucking bubble
Just cuz you dress a clown in Coach don't mean he'll ever Michael B
Black Eyed Peas
With some gravy
Simple walk to the corner store
Mama never thought she would be gettin' a call from the coroner
Said her son's been gunned down, been gunned down
suggest you pout
I'ma send this nigga out, get blessed by the God
Don't get clapped on
Just a young black man with a backbone
In the back come home,
payments to make
County building's on my ass
Tryna take my food stamps away
I beat yo' ass if you tell them social workers he live here
I beat yo' ass if
When times get tough you better hit your knees
Don't you go calling that kettle black
And when you get ticked off
Water off a duck's back
Living by
suspenders
Sunk in the scent of black eyed peas for dinner
The fruit of my grandma's hands extended for her fam
Togetherness the essence of her plan
My Dad
