Get Right

about

This is a funky tune that practically wrote itself in 15 minutes lyrics and all. It was inspired by true life events.

lyrics

GET RIGHT

Papa spent his whole life in and out of jail.
Chasin' the bottle always chasin' the pill.
Sniffin' every hussy that come along.
Couldn't get the monkey off his back long enough
to get right.

Mamas high on meth barely slept in weeks.
Leaves her children home while she works the streets.
Big brother bout' jus' five gotta be the man,
no hope in sight ya' all
just tryin' to get right.

Hey there mama you been acting like a fool.
You got little children countin' on you.
Can't you see the life you liven'
just ain't right?
No, no, no it sho' ain't right.

Little sister sho' nuff be getting' down
with every nasty boy and girls she meet in town. oow la, la, la.
Searching for anything to numb the pain.
Couldn't keep her ass together
long enough to get right.

Common people don't you let this be your fate.
Think about the road your on before it's too late.
Don't abuse your children 'les they turn out like me.
Would you like to watch 'em spend they whole lives
jus' tryin' to get right?
