The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

When I turned around, they shot me down

And they told me to go home

Oh how I tried to swallow my pride

When they told me to go home

I'ma keep my hair up high

When the mister comes to call

But when I turned around

He shot me down

And he told me to go home

Rolled up late this morning

And the man shouts to me

He said What d'ya think you're doing?

I said Sorry Mr G

Well I'll admit, my heart ain't in it

Like it used to be

But these rules and regulations

No they don't mean Jack to me

When I turned around, they shot me down

And they told me to go home

Oh how I tried to swallow my pride

When they told me to go home

I'ma keep my hair up high

When the mister comes to call

But when I turned around

He shot me down

And he told me to go home

Playground problems got me vexed

Freedom's what I need

These do's and don't's bring out

The disobedience in me

Doubts caress my brain

As I make my way home

Oh you know this girl is stubborn

I can make it on my own

But when I turned around, they shot me down

And they told me to go home

Oh how I tried to swallow my pride

When they told me to go home

I'ma keep my hair up high

When the mister comes to call

But when I turned around

He shot me down

And he told me to go home

I won't return

I don't need ya

I'll be just fine

Come next July

I don't wanna be crude

I don't like the food

So they told me to go home

Can't mess around today

They want it their way

And told me to go home

I wanna ride the groove

Show me friends some moves

But when I turned around

They shot me down

They shot me down

And they told me to go home

No they didn't like the way I talk

And they told me to go home

Oh they reckon that my skirts too short

And they told me to go home

I'ma keep my hair up high

When the mister comes to call

But when I turned around

He shot me down

And he told me to go home
