Sex Education: Ghetto Style

Sex Education: Ghetto Style

(album: Free Will - 1972)

I was doing it when I was a colored boy of eight or nine or ten
I had never heard of Sigmund Freud but hell I was doing it then
I was doing it in my teenaged years when I was running the ghetto streets
Now I had never seen me no ink blot test but it still felt good to me
I was doing it when I arrived in college searching for my degree
But Lord knows a degree wasn't all I got and that's the way it's supposed to be
I hope that when I have kids of my own they really don't get shook
When I tell them that there are things they've got to learn that can't be found in books.
