thin lizzy - black boys on the corner (bbc radio 1 john peel session) lyrics
[intro]
“hey, man, what you doin’?”
“i think i’ll go on down the corner”
[verse 1]
one of the black boys said, “i need none of your pity
it’s your mama that don’t like you loose in the city
but stick about, take note, take a tip and take no back lip
come a+closer, let me see you snap your fingertip”
’cause standin’ on the corner just might suit ya
or maybe, baby, there’s something else that you wanna do, yeah
[pre+chorus]
i like a+rollin’ dice, nice
i like a+playin’ poker, and you’re a joker
[chorus]
i’m a little black boy and i don’t know my proper place
i’m a little black boy and i just threw my beat ace
i’m a littlе black boy, recognize the facе
[guitar solo]
[verse 2]
one of the black boys said “i’m a+givin’ a warnin'”
people been puttin’ me down, i’m so tired i’m a+yawnin’
a new suit, pretty boots to boot, feelin’ sl!ck, yeah
i’m gonna go to town and look around, pull a chick, yeah”
of course standin’ on the corner just might suit you
or maybe, baby, there’s somethin’ else that you wanna do, yeah
[post+chorus]
i like a+playin’ poker, joker
i like to back a race, ace
[chorus]
i’m a little black boy and i don’t know my proper place
i’m a little black boy, and i just threw my spade ace
i’m a little black boy, recognize the face
i’m a little black boy, and i just play my bass
