Gil Scott-Heron - Small Talk At 125th And Lenox lyrics

This is just like listening to a conversation being held by the many people who congregate on one of the most popular blocks in the largest area of black America Did you ever eat cornbread and black eye peas Or watermelon and mustard greens? Get high as you can on Saturday night Go to church on Sunday to set things right Listen I seen Miss Blake after Willy yesterday She'd've k**ed anybody who got in her way Hey look I got a TV for a pound on the head And Jimmy Jean got the best Panamanian Red No I ain't got on no underclothes But we all got to get through this gypsy rose I think Clay got his very good points You say a trade bag with thirteen joints? Who cares if LBJ is in town? Up with Stokely and H. Rap Brown I don't know if the riots is wrong But whitey's been kickin' my a** for too long I was s'posed to baby but they held my pay. Did you hear what the number was yesterday? Junkies is all right when they ain't broke They leaves you alone when they high on dope Damn, but I wish I could get up and move Shut up. Hell you know that ain't true.
