Curtis Mayfield - No Thang On Me lyrics

Ya know ive been around the world and ai ai ai Ive met a lot of people and what ive come to find out is That people are the same, they all share the same fears Share the same tears, and i over the years So, im just gon be thankful to get what i got And hold onto what i have can you dig that? And what i do, i do for the benefit of me and my kids Dig that Talk to me Chorus Im so glad ive got my own So glad that i can see My life's a natural high And they can't put no thang on me (x2) Its something kind of funny How the man take your money Be sure as he can be Its such a way you'll never see Its a terrible thing inside When your natural high has died What we can't turn to dope And put all aside the hope Chorus (x2) Twinkling tinkling braids We do all sorts of things While you're in a modest place Your conciouses only peace Yeah i had to make peace with myself you know what i mean I been getting high for the last what 15 20 years So i told myself i wanna know what it feels like to be high fo life And i mean man i tell ya it feels real good You know coaching them lil kids out there on the football field Doing my thug thizzle still but you know Just being high for life is a different feeling You should try it my brother im telling you its a great feeling Can you dig that I can dig it More and more you grieve (sing that song nephew) Until you grow another need You claim this fantasy You'll have no reality Chorus (x2) Darling take a listen This may be something that your missin I know your times are funky But you dont have to be no junkie Chorus (x2)
