I'm a man, don't you forget it, I'm not a little kid
|
Understand, you might regret it, treating me the way you did
|
Hey old man, shut your mouth and listen, this here's the new regime
|
I command, you could go missin', you could be off the scene
|
|
(I'm not here to pray) I'm not here to pray
|
(So papa don't say) so papa don't say, I'm not ready
|
Cos the hands feel so steady, take the reins
|
|
We got a team, we got the muscle, when things are getting tight
|
Will there seem, if there's a hustle, money changes every fight?
|
Look at me, you will discover, I'm not my father's son
|
You will see, when you recover, I'm mama's only one
|
|
(Look straight in my eye) look me in the eye
|
(Try to deny) try to deny, I'm not ready
|
But these hands feel so sturdy, oh, take the reins
|
|
(Take the reins)
|
|
(I'm sure in your game) I know that in your game
|
(You were okay) you were okay, that's behind us
|
Oh, Louise, is it vengeless?
|
Oh, take the reins
|
|
I'm a man, I'm not a little kid
|
Why, I understand
|
Shut your mouth and listen
|
Ah, and don't work out a new regime
|
Yeah, I got a team
|
Yeah, take the reins
|
I'm mama's only one
|
Ah, take the reins
|
