Lyrics
Da-da-da, da-do
Da-da-da-da, da-da-do-do-do, da-da-da
Rockets, moon shots
Spend it on the have-nots
Money, we make it
Before we see it, you take it
Oh, make me wanna holler
The way they do my life
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
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, makes me wanna holler
The way they do my life
Oh, baby
Hang-ups, letdowns
Bad breaks, setbacks
Natural fact is
Honey, that I can't pay my taxes
Oh, make me wanna holler
Throw up both my hands
Makes me wanna holler
Throw up both my hands
Crime is increasin'
Trigger-happy policin'
Panic is spreading
God knows where we're heading
Makes me wanna holler
You don't understand
Makes me wanna holler
You don't understand
