Sly & The Family Stone - Funky Roots

Nerves

The nerve of a mountain lion
The purr of the tamed house cat
The smile of a Miss Virginia
The worth of the poisoned rat
I mean cat, oh this and that

The nerve of you, the nerve of you
You did treat me just like trash
You think my heart's something to burn

You think you know hell all of us
You have got a lot to learn yeah

One day I will learn
Never trust your smile
But because I love you, oh so much
I know it's gonna take a good while

The nerve of you, the nerve of you
You treat me like a fool
Trying to make me throw my do

You think you know hell all of us
You have got a lot to learn

Ooh wee
The nerve of you, the nerve of you
You treat me just like dirt
Don't you think that this stuff hurt

You think you know hell all of us
You have got a lot to learn, yeah ooh
