Bootsy Collins - Don't Let 'em lyrics

Rosie G. and Bootsy, in the house! (You got to do it) You got to do it, ooooh yeah baby! Tell 'em what we talkin' bout, Snoop Pullin' and grabbin' you, Rattlesnakin' and stabbin' you Things you wouldn't imagine Simply because you like havin' people Talkin about you but you can't pay no attention They say, that's how it is Even when you be livin' presidential They always funkin' with you Especially when you go official Take it from me, a GC People are so fictitial Sticks and stones they break bones And Talk make the weak fall off While the strong keep keepin' on Rosie Gaines: I take two steps forward They try to knock me four steps back Whenever I see color They only see white or black Whenever I speak my mind They put words in my mouth Do they really think that I'm lyin' When I know what they're all about? Don't let them put you down No, don't let'em Don't let them put you down Don't let'em Don't let them put you down Don't let them put you down Don't let'em When I'm in my sunshine They bring their rain to fall I'm lookin' at this picture But they can't see it at all I'm steppin' on the gas And I wanna move ahead They say I'll never make it But that's what they always said Don't let them put you down Don't let'em Don't let them put you down Don't let'em Don't let them put you down Don't let'em Put ya feet on the gas step on fast Bootsy: You say "In God We Trust" While you promote hate, fear and lust And Love, Joy and Pain Is in a constant struggle for superior gain Don't let them put you down (don't just stand there) Don't let them put you down (sound so funky to me, yeah) Don't let them put you down (Oh, don't let'em) Don't let them put you down Don't let'em Oh yeah, just another dog day afternoon Have you ever been on a trip And found out that you was from another time, baby Where unconditional love takes root And our intelligence is absolutely color-blind baby (Don't let'em) Twinkle, twinkle little star You got your hands up in my cookie jar (Don't let'em) Snoop: Don't doubt it, don't doubt it, Don't talk about it about it Don't doubt it, don't doubt it Don't talk about it about it (Don't let them put you down) Tell 'em what we talkin' bout, Snoop See, I was once told that To be talked about was one of the greatest forms of flattery And I'm flattered that you're talkin' about me For you to talk about me Is something fun to do, Baby Yeah you keep doin' what you do, Cause I'm definitely gon' keep doin' what I do Don't doubt it, don't doubt it I'm not gon' talk about it I'm gon' be about it Can you dig it?
