Mind Funk - Sugar Ain't So Sweet lyrics

Good God, yeah! Well, sugar ain't so sweet with blood on your feet Said welcome to the world around ya If you want out ya gotta get it done Ain't nobody here to help ya Momma's in the bathroom fixing her addiction Gotta make herself feel better Businessman he come and k** it all for fun Walk away and leave ya dying Hey, hey, hey what da ya say? New york city Has put the devil in me Down to Missouri My daddy was a poor boy He ain't got nothing Just another hard-luck champion Got to earn that money Got to get himself a better way Around the back, outside the right man's shack See the joker and the fallen hero Just beggin' for some wine and a little time To pick themselves up from zero I don't want no free ride cause I got too much pride But a pain like this I'll sure remember Seems luck is only bad and love is only sad When life is now or never Hey, hey, hey what da ya say? New york city Has put the devil in me Down in Missouri My daddy was a poor boy He ain't got nothing Just another hard-luck champion Got to earn his money Got to get himself a better way Goin' southbound on the break Went to the old man to find the answer And he said the river knows Been to the old man to hear the story And this is how the story goes It goes bang! and you're dead! Life's like a bullet to the head Boy there ain't no black or white Only wrong and right, what da ya say? New york city Has put the devil in me Down in Missouri My daddy was a poor boy He ain't got nothing Just another hard-luck champion Got to earn his money Got to get himself a better way Get a better way
