Black Boys On The Corner - Rough Mix Lyrics

[00:43.64] One of the black boys said "I need none of your pity"
[00:47.80] It's your mama that don't like you loose in the city
[00:52.38] But stick about, take note, take a tip and take no back lip
[00:57.07] Come closer, let me see you snap your fingertip
[01:01.52] 'Cause standing on the corner just might suit you
[01:05.93] Or maybe, baby, there's something else that you wanna do
[01:10.52] I like a rolling dice, nice
[01:15.11] I like a shooting pool, hey that's cool
[01:19.99] I'm a little black boy and I don't know my place
[01:25.31] I'm a little black boy and I just threw my ace
[01:30.83] I'm a little black boy, recognize the face
[01:36.22]
[02:12.17] One of the black boys said "I'm a-giving a warning"
[02:16.75] "People been putting me down, I'm so tired I'm yawning"
[02:21.02] A new suit, pretty boots to boot, I'm feeling slick, yeah
[02:25.52] I'm gonna go to town, look around, pull a chick, yeah
[02:30.18] Of course standing on the corner just might suit you
[02:34.79] Or maybe, baby, there's something else that you wanna do, yeah
[02:39.20] I like playing poker, joker
[02:43.83] I like to back a race, ace
[02:48.76] I'm a little black boy and I don't know my proper place
[02:54.26] I'm a little black boy, get my head in its space
[02:59.69] I'm a little black boy and I just play my bass
[03:05.12] I'm a little black boy and I just threw my spades
[03:10.58] I'm a little black boy, recognize the face
[03:15.98] I'm a little black boy, I'll take down anybody, anyway
[03:21.46] I'm a little black boy
[03:26.63] I'm a little black boy
[03:30.43] I'm a bad boy
[03:31.69]
