Carole King - Haywood lyrics

Haywood, where have you been, tell me now Haywood, you been on the street again, I know, I know Haywood, that man's not your friend Haven't you had enough of the stuff Oh, you know it's got to do you in Remember John John How mama stayed awake all night The night they brought him in She cried and said she always knew he was up to no good It broke her heart the night he died And she made me promise I'd stand by your side And try to protect you from the evil in the neighborhood Haywood, where have you been, tell me now Haywood, you been on the street again, I know, I know Haywood, hangin' out with your so-called friends What makes you think that you'll be the one to put it down Use your ears, use your eyes, just look around Everyone's dying, everyone's going down Just think of Vallorie She's always been so good to you and you've never let her down What about the life you planned It can still come true, it's all up to you I know it's hard to shake it But you got to be a man and take it I know this is no way to make it It's not too late for you Listen to me, Haywood
