[Verse 1] I got up this morning Put on my shoes Tied my shoes Went to the mirror For to comb my hair I made a move Know what to do Try to break and run [Verse 2] Baby, this ain't me Baby, this ain't me Grown so ugly Grown so ugly Don't even know myself Don't even know myself
[Verse 3] Left Angola, 1964 Walking down the street Knock upon my baby's door My baby come out And ask me who I am I say "Honey Honey, don't you know your man?" She said "My man been gone Since 1942 And I tell you, Mr. Ugly He didn't look like you!"
