i don't know (satisfaction)

Singer: sly & the family stone

people to see

even me

man with a little got more of a plea

he's cryin'-i don't know

time at last

laws to pass

can't be a few got to be a mass

a-tryin'-got to go

bigger crowd

feelin' proud

and all of a sudden i'm singin' loud

applyin'-what i know

feel the game

not a pain

ain't nobody in a strain

defyin'-'cause they know

now i know what to do

no more sellin' me to you

buyin'-that's a no no no

mother wit is what you git

tryin' to have the most of it

am i livin'-i don't know

ask yourself how you feel

are you really feelin' real

what you say-i don't know

i see abuse

what's the use

time must let my people loose

we tryin'-i don't know

much to learn

a place to turn

when there's nothin' else to burn

replyin'-think i know

nothin' in the way

but another day

and we're gonna push it on out the way

'cause we're goin'-what we know
