There go the kids again,
Raising hell the best they can,
A blind eye to my old man,
And all my shaking, tried my best,
If it’s gonna cause trouble for you,
I suggest you leave it then,
The big man never caught my hook,
Thought that my life was a written book,
Hanging his head in shame every-time I would play for him,
Driven by force to keep on working,
I never think I could learn how,
He let the river drown all his dreams in the ground,
Don’t let the river drown all your dreams in the ground,
People gonna come on and keep on talking,
Tell you which way to walk in,
If it’s gonna cause trouble for you,
I suggest you leave it lie,
Hey hey hey, my my my,
I’ve been living my life stuck inside,
A prisoner of my time,
A victim of happenstance,
Biting my tongue to keep from talking,
I won’t give you no second warning,
I let you put me down far too long now,
Don’t let em’ put you down,
People gonna come on, keep on talking,
Tell ya which way to walk in,
If it’s gonna cause trouble for you,
I suggest you leave it then
