MAN OF MANY WORDS
I don’t care what nobody says,

That I swear that you’ve never heard.
I rap strong and I know rap long,
Come on momma let me turn you on.

I tell ya baby…oh now…

When I rap my game,
And call your name,
You’ll never be the same.
Midnight hour is when I dreamed of you,
I swear that you called my name.
I rap strong, and I know rap long,
C’mon momma let me turn you on.

Tell me baby,
Oh…baby rap time.

I was hauled off to jail late last night,
With no one to post my bail.
I rapped strong to the judge early this morning,
And the judge put the cops in jail.

C’mon momma let me turn you on.

Let me tell you baby,
Oh let me turn you on.

WOKE UP DREAMING
Woke up dreaming,
I was gonna die.
Woke up dreaming,
I was gonna die.
‘Cause my baby said her,
Said her last goodbyes.

Reached out for her,
And she was not there.
Reached out for her,
And she was not there.
Lord I miss her body,
And her long brown hair.

Heart rate fallin’ – river flood,
Black cat bawlin’ – moon drippin’ blood.
Woke up dreamin’, I was gonna die.
All my sins abound me,
It’s my turn to cry.
Yeah…

Devil’s risin’,
You don’t have a chance.
Devil’s risin’,
You don’t have a chance.
Where there’s fiddles playin’,
Shake your bones and dance.

I just want to,
Live another day.
I just want to,
Live another day.
See that brown-haired woman,
Comin’ back this way.

Oh yeah…

I DON’T LIVE ANYWHERE
Got no ceiling but the sky,
Like the world babe, just rolling by.
I don’t live anywhere, I live everywhere,
This road is my home.
There’s nine-to-fives, pretty yards,
That was never babe, in the cards.
I don’t live anywhere, I live everywhere,
This road is my home.

The clamours and glamours of the city, I don’t need ‘em.
As long as I live, let me hold on to my freedom!
It’s crossed my mind now and then,
A little too late babe, go back and start again.
I don’t live anywhere, I live everywhere,
This road is my home.
