Lyrics for 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)
