Be Thankful For What You Got

You may not drive, a great big Cadillac
Gangsta white walls, TV antenna in the back
You may not drive, a car at all
But remember brothers and sisters
You can still stand tall
Just be thankful, for what you got

Though you may not drive, a great big Cadillac
Gangsta white walls, TV antenna in the back
You may not drive, a car at all
But remember brothers and sisters
You can still stand tall
Everybody sing it

Devils in the back
Sunroof top
Diggin the scene
With a Gangsta lean, ohoooo, oooo
(repeat 4 times)

Busted Feet

Well I’m living my life, huh, yeah
Thinking of only you all the time
Looking to the future, baby
But don’t forget about the past, how could you forget
I’m just standing here wondering, hey

I said

Ah common baby
You know I love you
Doing your thing (…..)
Get me away from here

Everybody's Gotta Live

Everybody’s gotta live
And everybody’s gonna die
Everybody’s gotta live
I think you know the reason why
Sometime they go and get so good
But then again it gets pretty rough
But when I have you in my arms baby
You know I just can’t, I just can’t get enough
Oh yeah

Everybody’s gotta live, yes they do
And everybody’s gonna die
Everybody try to have a, a good time
I think you know the reason why

I saw a blind man standing on the corner yesterday baby
He couldn’t hardly tie his shoes
But he had a harmonica and a guitar strapped around his neck
And he sure could, he sure could play the blues
Oh yeah

Everybody’s gotta live
And everybody’s gonna die
Everybody try to have a, a good time
I think you know the reason why

I feel like I’ve seen just about a, million sunsets
She said if you’re with me I’ll never go away
That’s when I stopped and I took another look at my baby
She said if you’re with me I’ll never go away
Because

Everybody’s gotta live
And everybody’s gonna die
Everybody’s gotta live
Before you know the reason why

I had a dream the other night, baby
I dreamt that I was alone
But when I woke up I took a look around myself
And I was surrounded by fifty million strong
Oh yeah
Everybody’s gotta live
And everybody’s gonna die
Everybody’s gotta live
Before you know the reason why
Yeah

Everybody’s gotta live
And everybody’s gonna die
Everybody’s gotta live
You gotta live, before you, know the reason why
