We Ain't Goin' Nowhere
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.
(One two, three four, five)
Sitting in the kitchen
Eating yellow rice and chicken
Watching Saturday morning cartoons
Tastes a little bland
Need a little pepper and
Hey, Anna, can you pour me some juice?
Super hot comb
Sittin' on a hot stove
'Cause my momma tried to straighten my hair
She whispered in my ear
Be a Betsy, my dear
It's a different world out there
And we're here
Gonna stay here
And if you don't like it, that's fair
But we're here
Gonna stay here
We ain't goin' nowhere
We ain't goin' nowhere
We ain't goin' nowhere
We ain't goin' nowhere
We ain't goin' nowhere
We ain't goin' nowhere
We ain't goin' nowhere
Nah, nah, nah, nah
We ain't ever goin' nowhere
Five years old
In my new school clothes
I was happy and we're ready to play
They were talking to each other
Told me not to come no further
Said I couldn't be apart of the game
I didn't realize
'Til I got to senior high
That I wasn't like the rest of the class
Tried fitting in but I just couldn't win
Can you help me do the math?
And we're here
Gonna stay here
And if you don't like it, that's fair
But we're here
Gonna stay here
We ain't goin' nowhere
We ain't goin' nowhere
We ain't goin' nowhere
We ain't goin' nowhere
We ain't goin' nowhere
We ain't goin' nowhere
We ain't goin' nowhere
Nah, nah, nah, nah
We ain't ever goin' nowhere
(Nah niki nah ni nah ni nah
Niki nah niki nah ni aye!)
Going nowhere
(Nah niki nah ni nah ni nah
Niki nah niki nah ni aye!)
And we're here
Gonna stay here
And if you don't like it, that's fair
But we're here
Gonna stay here
We ain't goin' nowhere
We ain't goin' nowhere
We ain't goin' nowhere
We ain't goin' nowhere
We ain't goin' nowhere
We ain't goin' nowhere
We ain't goin' nowhere
Nah, nah, nah, nah
We ain't ever goin' nowhere
