Curtis Mayfield - Ain't Got Time lyrics

Child I'm a fool for ya Ain't too proud of that For when it comes to love and pride Pride is something that I seem to lack Our relation's in danger And you act like a stranger But this time I'm not flyin' 'Cause I ain't got the time Make a mess of me Which wasn't supposed to be We were supposed to change It couldn't be arranged Your mama's son And sisters do All here today Unite and true She acts in love I help myself Distrust your sign Ain't got no time Playin' with you And you didn't cut me loose I won't say that we're losers It's just a mutual choosin' 'Cause what is yours is mine Is just yours in my mind You're not convincing my mind 'Cause I ain't got the time Our love had gone to blow Can't get hung up no more And now ain't nothin' left Get up and help yourself You double-cross Your lover's boss Ignored advice And blew our lives Your useless prayer I cannot bare It wasn't fair You should have cared Ain't got it Ain't got it Ain't got it Ain't got it Ain't got it Ain't got it Your mama's son And sisters do All here today Unite and true She acts in love I help myself Distrust your sign Ain't got no time Ain't got it Ain't got it Ain't got it Ain't got it You double-cross Your lover's boss Ignored advice And blew our lives Your useless prayer I cannot bare It wasn't fair You should have cared Ain't got it Ain't got it Ain't got it Ain't got it
