playing in the street

hiding in the alley

smoking cigarettes

tippling in the corner

lord

i can't forget

i ain't seen no rolling

no rolling do i need

come and get me mama

i been playing in the street

grown into a big man

grass it get me high

long before i fainted

walking through the jungle

lord what can i see

come and get me mama

i've been playing in the street

ain't no doubt about it

down that alley lonely

i'm gonna call you sweetheart

you can call me sweet

come and get me mama

i've been playing in the street
