Lyrics:
Jerry Jeff Walker
Manny was a maker of hats, Manny was much more than that
He was the kind of guy, you and I would want for a friend
Manny was
heart
'Cause I sacrifice to make you happy
Get nothin' for myself
Now you wanna leave me
For the love of someone else
My pride is all gone, whether
No, I'll never stop
Keep it comin', keep on comin' for more (don't front, front)
I'll never give you up (never)
No, I'll never stop (I'll never
Let me give you this good, good lovin'
Give me the word, girl, tell me somethin'
Give me the world, won't ask for nothin'
Let me show ya how much I
If Pirus and Crips all got along
They'd probably gun me down by the end of this song
Seem like the whole city go against me
Every time I'm in
Attracting only women, got no time for little girls
Cause girls look so good but their brain is not ready
I don't know
I'd rather talk to a woman cause
nothin' but a she
thing
I could be anything that I want to be baby
Don't consider me a minority Yeah you know
Open up your eyes and maybe you'll see It's
that hide behind desks
I just want you to know
I can see through your masks
You that never done nothin'
But build to destroy
You play with my
dream, of that ghetto prom queen
Was to make it to the screen, maybe get seen
Maybe get chose by a nigga from my team
Head so good he don't ask for
that hide behind desks
I just want you to know
I can see through your masks
You that never done nothin'
But build to destroy
You play with my
be good and don't be chasin'
All those pretty women that you know
And by the way if you see barbara walker
Tell her that I said "hello."
Attracting only women, got no time for little girls
Cause girls look so good but their brain is not ready
I don't know
I'd rather talk to a woman cause
change
In a world that keeps turnin' and movin' so fast
When you can't hold on to nothin' and nothin' seems to last
It's so good to know that love still
Skin feel good at night
Makin' love in a sleepin' bag
And holdin' me pretty tight
We've spent the days side by side
Right upon the great divide
And look
down (bankrolls, yeah, haha)
Reach for the stars (it's all good)
You had a goal (come on)
But not that many (it's all good)
'Cause you're the only
to the screen, maybe get seen
Maybe get chose by a *** from my team
Head so good, he don't ask for a prenup
Now ask yourself this question, umm
Would you be
This is for my ghetto motherfuckers
Uh hey
Are you really a hot boy
Oh check me
What's your name, cause I'm impressed
Can you treat me good, I
one puff and get high!
We got a nephew Scott, Scott is always ripped
Scott's surprisingly cool for a pretty shy kid
He's in 10th grade, but a really
Tellin' me the things you that heard about
Nothin' good comes when you searchin' for the wrong things
Somethin' feels off when I come around
funny
But money don't mean nothin' to me
I won't make my music for money, no
I'm gonna make my music for me
He said that people only buy the love
I could tell by the color of your energy field
U thought this game was over
Chemical peel
You tried to do me like my good brother Steve
But I got
tomorrow you're gone
I loved a man for many years gone by
I thought his love for me would never die
He made some changes that would never do
From now
tomorrow you're gone
I loved a man for many years gone by
I thought his love for me would never die
He made some changes that would never do
From now
They're living by the law of the jungle not the law of the land
The Good Book says it so I know it's the truth
An eye for and eye and a tooth for a tooth
