Låttexter: The Black League. Citizen Cain.

[Florida, Jarva et al.]

Over here, fella!.

He-hey, You Mister! Why don't you LISTEN?
A few WORDS from a POOR OL' guy now.
Just wanna tell you 'bout THAT THING
That crossed my PATH changing the COURSE of my LIFE!

You've heard the STORY and it's TRUE
So ONE DAY these boots will WALK all over you!

One SOUL. One MAN.
No FATE in a HIGHER HAND.
One HEART. One WILL.
And just one CUP to FILL.

Ok now, Mister. I'm gonna MAKE you LISTEN.
To this CONFESSION of a WRETHCED kind.
Just wanna tell you 'bout that SAME OL' THING
That got me BRANDED for the REST of my LIFE

You've heard the STORY and it's TRUE
I might be CRAZY but I ain't NO FOOL!
These boots will WALK all over you!

One SOUL. One MAN.
No FATE in a HIGHER HAND.
One HEART. One WILL.
One CUP to FILL.

You know the STORY's TRUE.
The ONLY thing I'll do.

Is standing at the CROSSROADS, babe, Yeah!
