U know I'm tired of workin' And my hands are so tired too U know I'm tired of workin' So I'm sitting here next to you
Ain't off to the back, I'm resting my feet U know what I think I'll have a seat U do what u need, sir - you call who you need, sir But I'mma sit right here, pardon me!
I know a man understands in this world When a women's gone and up her mind And I don't know much But I do know it's wrong For me to get up. Do what you gotta do, sir
I'll tell u something about me I believe in something that's true I might as well be a mountain Cuz you know ain't about to move
Ain't off to the back, I'm resting my feet U know what I think I'll have a seat U do what u need, sir - you call who you need, sir But I'mma sit right here, pardon me!
I know a man understands in this world When a women's gone and up her mind And I don't know much But I do know it's wrong For me to get up. Do what you gotta do, sir (2x)
And I don't wanna be difficult But I do wanna change everything, yeah No one can make me move that's why I'mma fight to make it right I'mma fight until it's right
No sir, you the chauffeur Paid my bus fare and I got a transfer Laws to deter, that's how we were Things finna change now I'm sitting right there Step to the side, Emmet Till died Couldn't hold us back with the chains but they tried Bills to provide, got ratified Signed by the judge an the man but they lied Now we standin' up and she's sitting down Better watch for the hose when we march through your town If you're black or you're brown eyes on the crown Add up the tears that we shed I could drown These are the times -things gotta change Ride in the front take it back to the range Ain't a new campaign we can maintain No going back falling off is insane
