Inner City Blues Lyrics


Rockets, moon shots
Spend it on the have nots
Money, we make it
Before we see it you take it
Ah, make me wanna holler
The way they do my life
Make me wanna holler
The way they do my life
Listen baby, this ain't livin
No, this ain't livin
Inflation no chance
To increase finance
Bills pile up sky high
Send that boy off to die
Oh, they make me wanna holler
The way they do my life
Oh, they make me wanna holler
The way they do my life

Oh, listen baby, this ain't livin
No, no baby, this ain't livin
No, no, no, no, no
Hang ups and let down
Bad breaks, set backs
Natural fact is
That I can't pay my taxes
No
Oh, they make me wanna holler
And throw up both my hands
Oh, they make me wanna holler
And they don't understand
Oh, listen baby, this ain't livin
No, no baby, this ain't livin, this ain't livin
Oh, no, heh
Crime is increasin
Trigger happy policin
Panic is spreadin
God knows where I'm headin
No
Oh, they make me wanna holler
And throw up both my hands [The way they do my life]
Oh, they make me wanna holler
And they don't understand [The way they do my life]
Oh, listen baby, this ain't livin
No, no baby, this ain't livin, this ain't livin, this ain't livin
Oh, no
This ain't livin, no, no, no, no, no
Hey

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

Reuben Wilson was one of many soul-jazz organists to emerge in the late '60s, but he was one of only a handful of new organists from that era to be signed to Blue Note. Between 1968 and 1971, he recorded five sessions for the label. None of his records received much acknowledgment at the time, but they were later rediscovered by a new generation of soul-jazz fans, becoming collector's items within acid jazz and soul-jazz circles. Wilson began performing professionally in 1962.
