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
