John Mellencamp Whenever We Wanted Album

9.Theye So Tough

Theye so tough
They like to make us feel little
They like to meke us feel small
They like to put us down
ill we feel no good at all

Then they tell us that wee stupid
That we got no sense at all
Theyl take away the spark
Keep us in the dark
Make us feel we have no vision at all

Chorus:
No, no, no, i don believe it has to be this way
No, i don believe it has to be this way

Then they tell us to be patient
That our time will come
But ie stood outside their doors
And walk their floors
And i ain gonna do it again

They like to make me their nigger
I say to hell with them
I not getting down on my knees
And begging please
Can you throw me a crumb now and then

Chorus:
No, no, no, i don believe it has to be this way
No, no, no, i don believe it has to be this way

I can really speak to you
And i don know about them
They must be out of their minds
Can read between the lines
They can stick it where the sun don shine

Chorus:
No, no, no, i don believe it has to be this way
No, no, no, i don believe it has to be this way
No, no, no, i don believe it has to be this way

Theye so tough

They are so tough
