Sarah Vaughan
Inner City Blues (Make Me Wanna Holler)
[Verse 1]
Rockets, moon shots
Spend it on the have-nots
Money, we make it
'Fore we see it, you take it, oh
[Chorus]
Make you wanna holler
The way they do my life
Make me wanna holler
The way they do my life, this ain't livin'
[Post-Chorus]
This ain't livin', no, no, baby
This ain't livin', no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no
[Verse 2]
Inflation, a-no chance
To increase finance
Bills pile up sky-high
Send that boy off to die, oh
[Chorus]
Make me wanna holler
The way they do my life
Make me wanna holler
The way they do my life, oh, oh, oh, oh
[Verse 3]
Hang ups, let downs
Bad breaks and set backs
Natural fact is
I can't pay my taxes, oh
[Chorus]
Make me wanna holler
And throw up both my hands, yeah
Make me wanna holler
And throw up both my hands, ow
[Verse 4]
Crime is increasing
Trigger-happy, trigger-happy policing
Panic is spreading
God knows where we're heading, oh
[Chorus]
Make you wanna holler
They don't understand
Make me wanna holler
They don't understand
[Verse 1]
Rockets, moon shots
Spend it on the have-nots
Money, money, we make it
'Fore we see it, Lord knows you take it, oh
[Chorus]
Make me wanna holler
The way they do my life
Make me wanna holler
The way they use my life
[Verse 4]
Crime is increasing
Trigger-happy policing
Panic is spreading
God knows where, God knows where we're heading, oh
[Outro]
Make me wanna holler, yeah, yeah
Makes me wanna holler, ow
Make you wanna holler
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Make me wanna holler
Makes you wanna holler
