The Low Boy

Everybody said no, boy

You were born too low, boy

Just pick up and run

No, it can't be done, di-di-dum, di-dum, di-dum, dum, dum

I'm a homegrown soul boy

Royal flush, don't fold boy

Or pick up and run

I'll glow like the sun, di-di-dum, di-dum, di-dum, dum, dum

Hey, no means no

When the pitch goes high

You can't take it real low

Like Jon Snow

And as commander I should know

I've never taken orders from the drive-in-window

When you tell me no

I can feel it in my bones

And I always gotta show

Understand defeat, I'm going psycho

Got quicksanded feet, I'm going psycho

Must act nice and sweet, I'm going psycho

Veni, vidi, vici

I just want you to see

Everybody said no, boy

You were born too low, boy

Just pick up and run

No, it can't be done, di-di-dum, di-dum, di-dum, dum, dum

I'm a homegrown soul boy

Royal flush, don't fold boy

Or pick up and run

I'll glow like the sun, di-di-dum, di-dum, di-dum, dum, dum

Wax on, wax off

And pick up more trash

Laborious jobs until your music means cash

Thick skin

Cause I'm used to rejection

Every "no" claimed is a dose of affection

You don't seem to know

Where I'm, where I'm gonna go

And I always gotta show

Understand defeat, I'm going psycho

Got quicksanded feet, I'm going psycho

Must act nice and sweet, I'm going psycho

Veni, vidi, vici

I just want you to see

Everybody said no, boy

You were born too low, boy

Just pick up and run

No, it can't be done, di-di-dum, di-dum, di-dum, dum, dum

I'm a homegrown soul boy

Royal flush, don't fold boy

Or pick up and run

I'll glow like the sun, di-di-dum, di-dum, di-dum, dum, dum

Everybody say

Run, boy

Hide, boy

No-go low, boy

I say fly, boy

They're too slow, boy

You got the gift to glow like the sun

And I'm never gon' don' run

Everybody say

Run, boy

Hide, boy

No-go low, boy

I say fly, boy

They're too slow boy

You got the gift to glow like the sun

And I'm never gon' don' run

I'm a young gun, son

Low boy, pick up and run

Low boy, pick up and run

Low boy, pick up and run

Everybody, sing!

Everybody said no, boy

You were born too low, boy

Just pick up and run

No, it can't be done, di-di-dum, di-dum, di-dum, dum, dum

I'm a homegrown soul boy

Royal flush, don't fold boy

Or pick up and run

I'll glow like the sun, di-di-dum, di-dum, di-dum, dum, dum

Everybody said no, boy

You were born too low, boy

Just pick up and run

No, it can't be done, di-di-dum, di-dum, di-dum, dum, dum

I'm a homegrown soul boy

Royal flush, don't fold boy

Or pick up and run

I'll glow like the sun, di-di-dum, di-dum, di-dum, dum, dum
