Curtis Mayfield - Do Do Wap Is Strong in Here lyrics

Well! To keep from dyin', hey! hey! I've been lyin', uh huh! Shot a man, hey! and I stole and ran Well! Well! we tried to beat 'em And I lost my freedom My woman know that I'm in need So save some of mine for me If you got to give it up. don't desert me 'Cause leavin' me you know it would hurt me Snake pits and lucifer burns Can't take the strength I've earned and learned Grease, it just ain't greasy And nasty baby come so easy Ain't no heaven. ain't no heaven, this devil level All alone, all alone, all alone, all alone I get stoned, I get stoned Saw him pile him in the shower Hey! Now I plan to be a bad titty s**er And I plan to stay a black motherf**er Stepped in depth of the same livin' hell So I ain't too proud to die here as well Aw! Do Do Wap is strong in here Do Do Wap is strong in here Waking up to find yourself creamin' Check your fears and hope that you're dreamin' A little space is all that I need If these s**ers just allow me to breathe My woman's candy makin' him sick But when I cop there won't be nothin' to lick Give her some of all the hard, hard pain Make her achin' body call for my name My woman know my pa**ion of needs So save some of mine if you please If you got to give it up, don't desert me If you leave me, babe, know it would hurt me, hey! Do Do Wap is strong in here Do Do Wap is stro'ng in here Wakin' up to find yourself creamin' Check your fears and hope that you're dreamin' A little space is all that I need If these s**ers just allow me to breathe Snake pits and lucifers burns Can't take the strength I've earned and learned Stepped in depth of the same livin' hell Ain't too proud to die here as well Do Do Wap is strong in here Do Do Wap is strong in here, hey! hey! Do Do Wap is strong in here Do Do Wap is strong in here
