I came up the hard way

I just about raise myself

You know I came up the hard way

I just about raise myself

I've been in and out of trouble

But I've never been no one for you

I don't speak educated

Because of people's I have not known

Yes I don't speak educated

'Cause my people that I have known

But I'm done just about good else people's

People who have some

They said twenty six letters in the alphabet

People say that I can't even spell my name

They said twenty six letters in the alphabet

People say that I can't even spell my name

'Cause you know that I can go along so smoothly

People don't bother me as the same

After a few years test

I saw not how to sign my name

Yes it'll take few year best

I long how to sign my name

Still this letter in the alphabet

They to me to see the same

Some people call me the dumb boy

That don't think me no mind

Yes some people call me the dumb boy

But please don't think I have no my mind

'Cause every 0448 I have look the same

0452 no mind
