Best In Town
Mama and daddy told me,
When I was knee high to the ground,
He said son don't let nobody,
Push you around
You don't have to be the best in town,
Just try to be the best until,
Till the best come around
When I first heard Muddy Waters,
I knew I was Chicago Bound
Start playing on the South Side,
And this is what I found.
You don't have to be the best in town,
Just got to be the best,
Till the best come around
You don't have, to be the fastest gun,
But a Hoochie Coochie man of the Seven Suns.
I'm gonna keep on grinning,
Till my grays in the ground,
Because I'm too far gone to ever, turn around.
You don't have, to be the fastest gun,
But a Hoochie Coochie man of the Seven Suns.
I'm gonna keep on grinning,
Till my grays in the ground,
Because I'm too far gone to ever, turn around.
Met a side town women,
Down On Wall Bass Avenue,
She said I'm going love You
You damn sure gonna love me too.
You don't have to be the best in town,
Just try to be the best,
Look ahh here
You don't have to be the best in town,
You just got to be the best,
Till the best come around
When I was knee high to the ground,
He said son don't let nobody,
Push you around
You don't have to be the best in town,
Just try to be the best until,
Till the best come around
When I first heard Muddy Waters,
I knew I was Chicago Bound
Start playing on the South Side,
And this is what I found.
You don't have to be the best in town,
Just got to be the best,
Till the best come around
You don't have, to be the fastest gun,
But a Hoochie Coochie man of the Seven Suns.
I'm gonna keep on grinning,
Till my grays in the ground,
Because I'm too far gone to ever, turn around.
You don't have, to be the fastest gun,
But a Hoochie Coochie man of the Seven Suns.
I'm gonna keep on grinning,
Till my grays in the ground,
Because I'm too far gone to ever, turn around.
Met a side town women,
Down On Wall Bass Avenue,
She said I'm going love You
You damn sure gonna love me too.
You don't have to be the best in town,
Just try to be the best,
Look ahh here
You don't have to be the best in town,
You just got to be the best,
Till the best come around
