Who said it??? – 15 questions
You see how easily they nod
to me?
You been given’ me the
willies the way you walk
I’m responsible for you
I’m just afraid if it don’t turn
out good you’ll be mad at me
I want to be an American
And with that wacky hair; he’s
like a chorus girl or sump’m
Are you gonna stand over
her ‘till your forty?
You don’t like him?
Look, he’ll say anything. What
does he care what he says?
I struggled for that girl
But I can’t stay in the house
all the time
My heart dies to look at you
Don’t laugh at me, I’ve been
here all my life
Her mother will turn over in
her grave
I want my respect and you
know what I’m talking about.
