(G)Your mama said, clean out your head boy, don’t lay nothing on my child
Your friends they said, Your heads in a noose boy lay some boogie on our minds
And we (D)stood like the rapids and (C)I was like a new born (G)child.

Your father said, clean out your head boy, go and kick cans along the street
Your father said, clean out your toes rose and go and lick some uncooked meat
And we stood like the rapids and I was like a new born child.

And we stood like the rapids and I was like a new born child.

Your mama said, my babe is not free son, but I’m loose about midnight
Your father said, Your sisters a groove boy, what I said it just ain’t right
But then I stood like the rapids and they were like a new born child.

Gonna drive me wild
