Black Boys On the Corner Lyrics
What you doin' man
I think I am goin' down the cornerOne of the black boys said
"I need none of your pity"
It's your mama that don't
Like you loose in the cityBut stick about, take note
Take a tip and take no back lip
Come on closer
Let me see you snap your fingertip'Cause standin' on the corner
Just might suit you or maybe baby
There's somethin' else you wanna do, yeahI like a rollin' dice, nice
I like a shootin' pool, hey, that's coolI'm a little black boy and I don't know my place
I'm a little black boy and I just threw my ace
I'm a little black boy, recognize the faceOne of the black boys said
"I'm givin' a warnin'
People been puttin' me down
I'm so tired, I'm yawnin'"A new suit, pretty boots to boot
I'm feelin' slick, yeah
I'm gonna go to town, look around
Pull a chick, yeahOf course standin' on the corner
Just might suit you or maybe baby
There's something else that you wanna do, yeahI like a playin' poker, joker
I like to back a race, aceI'm a little black boy and I don't know my proper place
I'm a little black boy, get my head in its space
I'm a little black boy, I just play my bassI'm a little black boy, [Incomprehensible]
I'm a little black boy, recognize the face
I'm a little black boy, I'll take on anybody, [Incomprehensible]
