Love of the People

Who’s been misbehavin’?
Can’t  keep his hands clean?
Well,  judge, won’t you try do your best to save him?
‘Cause you know what prison means

‘Cause he was born with the love of his people
He  was raised on the love of his friends
He  just wants to be with the ones that he loves again

Uptown, downtown stealin’
Silver  wheels rollin’ by
Rubber heelin’s such a bad bad feelin’
See that look in the rich boy’s eye

He was born with the love of his people
He  was raised on the love of his friends
He just wants to be with the ones that he loves again

You was born with the love of your people
Raised on the love of your friends
Just want to be with the ones that you love again

Well, you can’t get away
From the story of the mother’s son, no, no, no
She left him in on his own
The day that his life begun

New York, sidewalk, daytime
Stands out like a stain
When night comes creepin’, the enemy sleepin’
You rise to the surface again

‘Cause you were born with the love of your people
And you were raised on the love of your friends
And you just want to be with the ones that you love again

‘Cause you were born with the love of your people
And you were raised on the love of your friends
And you just want to be with the ones that you love again
