Inner City Blues (Make Me Wanna Holler)

Rockets, moon shots

Spend it on the have-nots

Money, we make it

'Fore we see it, you take it

Oh, make me wanna holler

The way they do my life, yeah

Make me wanna holler

The way they do my life

This ain't livin', this ain't livin'

No, no baby, this ain't livin'

No, no, no, no

Inflation, no chance

To increase finance

Bills pile up, sky high

Send that boy off to die

Oh, make me wanna holler

The way they do my life

Yeah, make me wanna holler

The way they do my life

Oh baby

Hang ups, let downs

Bad breaks, setbacks

Natural fact is

Oh honey, that I can't pay my taxes

Oh, make me wanna holler

And throw up both my hands

Yeah, it makes me wanna holler

And throw up both my hands

Crime is increasing

Trigger happy policing

Panic is spreading

God knows where we're heading

Oh baby, it make me wanna holler

Babe, they don't understand

It make me wanna holler

They don't understand

Mother, mother (mother, mother)

Everybody thinks we're wrong (mother, mother)

Who are they to judge us? (Mother, mother)

Simply 'cause we wear our hair long (mother, mother)
