The Be Be King

Lyrics for The Be Be King

Good God I wanna be Cheese grits and the pancake mix that'll get your day started in the morning I wanna be Sausage and eggs, split burnt on the belly, baby, just like you want 'em I wanna be Hot cup of coffee, let it simmer and steam, no cream, just black I wanna be The gas in your car to get you where you going and then enough to come back, yeah I wanna be me, wild and free in something brand new Be a friend, get up under your skin like a tattoo on you Something, anything, everything, there's so many things that I wanna do Let me be (please), let me be (ooh), oh I wanna be The smile on your face when you like what you see when you're looking in the mirror I wanna be The things that make you you, unique and just a little bit weirder I wanna be The confidence and the quiet storm still alive after lightning strike ya I wanna be The voice saying that I told you so when everybody wanna be just like ya I wanna be me, wild and free in something brand new Be a friend, get up under your skin like a tattoo on you Something, anything, everything, there's so many things that I wanna do Let me be, let me be, oh I wanna be The one with the gun that won't run, that jump right in front of the bullet I wanna be Standing right there with my hands in the air, and I'm daring them to pull it I wanna be Not compared to you, but to yesterday, now I wanna be a little stronger I wanna be 'Cause I have already lived enough, and now I want you to live a little longer I wanna be me (ay), wild and free in something brand new Be a friend, get up under your skin like a tattoo on you Something, anything, everything, there's so many things that I wanna do Let me be (please), let me be (please), oh I wanna be A good-paying job when you work hard, with a little money in your pocket I wanna be The face with the big old smile around your neck in the heart-shaped locket I wanna be Your favorite song that you sing out loud when you're standing in the shower I wanna be And when the lights go out, I'm the generator to give you your power I wanna be me, wild and free (alright) in something brand new Be a friend, get up under your skin like a tattoo on you Something, anything, everything, there's so many things that I wanna do Let me be, let me be (ay), oh I wanna be (huh, good God) I wanna be (good God) I wanna be I wanna be (huh)
