Skrizzly Adams - Out Of Towners lyrics
[Skrizzly Adams - Out Of Towners lyrics]
Out of towners see the city once it's built
Walk for miles in order to
Feel these streets are real
And every mother's daughter deserves
A life she'd kill
For it's coursing through her veins
She wants what's hers against her will
'Cause the first thing Monday morning
We all feel it
And a woman on her own ain't twice as weak
She said
I don't give a damn she's gotta steal it
Oh, she said
I pray my girl is twice as man as me
Oh, she said
I pray my girl is twice as man as me
Well, I came to a city mid-October
Still decades left of progress underway
She said
Don't you let the absence of a father
Have my daughter go and
Make her mom's mistakes
'Cause the first thing Monday morning
We all feel it
And a woman on her own ain't twice as weak
She said
I don't give a damn she's gotta steal it
Oh, she said
I pray my girl is twice as man as me
Oh, she said
I pray my girl is twice as man as me
She said, I don't mind I can only try
'Cause things will always pan
Out like they do
You came just in time to watch it all unwind
'Cause, I can't stop my daughter's life
From being just like mine
But, I know first thing Monday
Morning she's gonna feel it
And a woman on her own ain't twice as weak
She said
I don't give a damn she's gotta steal it
Oh, I hope she prays her girl
Is twice as man as me
Oh, I hope she prays her girl
Is twice as man as me
Walk for miles in order to
Feel these streets are real
And every mother's daughter deserves
A life she'd kill
For it's coursing through her veins
She wants what's hers against her will
'Cause the first thing Monday morning
We all feel it
And a woman on her own ain't twice as weak
She said
I don't give a damn she's gotta steal it
Oh, she said
I pray my girl is twice as man as me
Oh, she said
I pray my girl is twice as man as me
Well, I came to a city mid-October
Still decades left of progress underway
She said
Don't you let the absence of a father
Have my daughter go and
Make her mom's mistakes
'Cause the first thing Monday morning
We all feel it
And a woman on her own ain't twice as weak
She said
I don't give a damn she's gotta steal it
Oh, she said
I pray my girl is twice as man as me
Oh, she said
I pray my girl is twice as man as me
She said, I don't mind I can only try
'Cause things will always pan
Out like they do
You came just in time to watch it all unwind
'Cause, I can't stop my daughter's life
From being just like mine
But, I know first thing Monday
Morning she's gonna feel it
And a woman on her own ain't twice as weak
She said
I don't give a damn she's gotta steal it
Oh, I hope she prays her girl
Is twice as man as me
Oh, I hope she prays her girl
Is twice as man as me
