Inner City Blues (Make Me Wanna Holler)

Mother, mother (Mother, mother)
Everybody thinks we're wrong (Mother, mother)
Who are they to judge us? (Mother, mother)
Simply 'cause we wear our hair long
Ooh

Rockets, moon shots
Spend it on the have nots
Money, we make it
'Fore 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 living (This ain't livin')
No, no, baby, this ain't living
No, 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
(Yeah) Make me wanna holler
The way they do my life
(Oh, baby)

Hang ups
Let downs
Bad breaks
Set backs
Natural fact is
Oh, honey, that I can't pay my taxes

Oh, make me wanna holler
And throw up both my hands
Yeah, it make me wanna holler
And throw up both my hands

(Oh) Crime is increasing
Trigger happy policing
Panic is spreading
God knows where we're heading

Oh, baby
Make me wanna holler
They don't understand
No, make me wanna holler
They don't understand
