Chicken Bone

Ooh ooh, ooh ooh, ooh ooh, ooh ooh
Hard times in the city
I get over, I get under
Don't it make you feel dizzy all the anger
I don't mean to be jealous my eyes have seen you with fellas
I find it hard to be part of the city when it's so unjust
It makes me feel like I wanna die

That's why
I don't drink alone (I never drink alone)
I got a big fine mamma at home (I just can't get enough)
She calls me chicken bone (my midnight tone)
And then she rolls me like a stone (I just can't get enough)

Bricked up in the city
And the buildings are laughing
Pay check burning my pocket
Going to buy a gold chain and a locket
Makes me feel like I'm gonna lie

That's why
I don't drink alone (I never drink alone)
I got a big fine mamma at home (I just can't get enough)
She calls me chicken bone (my midnight tone)
And then she rolls me like a stone (I just can't get enough)

All my pennies my farthings for my mortgage that I'm under
At her place all the sorrows of the world can wait 'til tomorrow
She makes me feel like it's all alright

That's why
I don't drink alone (I never drink alone)
I got a big fine mamma at home (I just can't get enough)
She calls me chicken bone (my midnight tone)
And then she rolls me like a stone (l just can't get enough)

I don't drink alone (I never drink alone)
I got a big fine mamma at home (I just can't get enough)
She calls me her chicken bone (my midnight tone)
And when she rolls me like a stone (I just can't get enough)

Like a stone (I just can't get enough)
Like a stone (just can't get enough), like a stone
