lyrics

WORDS OF WISDOM

Little lady came up to me she said
Boy you gotta realise
You've been missin all the days of glory
I've been livin them all my life
I said well that's alright, can ya
Help me to realise
Then she spoke her words of wisdom
Now I'll live them til I die

Don't land on your head
Always makin' time for your kin
And darlin if you're seeing black and red
Don't take another step

I met a man on a corner
Turnin' tricks for a dime
Looked at me and said why the worry?
This is how I live my life

I said well that's alright can ya
Help me not to fret no more
Then he spoke his words of wisdom
Now I don't feel no more

Don't land on your head
Always makin' time for your kin
And darlin if you're seeing black and red
Don't take another step

Some kind of person
That little lady
Some kind of person
Ooh yeah

Don't land on your head
Always makin' time for your kin
And darlin if you're seeing black and red
No, don't fret
