Nobody understands me
Nobody understands me now
My Momma don’t get it
Pappa say Boy you better turn that shit down
I don’t make sense to my teachers
I don’t make sense to my preacher now
All I do is go
Yeah Yeah, Oh Yeah Yeah
They say You need an education
They say This boy just needs some ambition
And they say Boy you just need some salvation
I don’t understand
Cause they stand there with their prescriptions
And their goddamn televisions
The got their augmentations
Their ammunitions
All I do is go
GO-GO-GO-GO-GO
They used to sing Tuitti Fruitti
They used to sing Be-Bop-A-Hula-Baby
They used to dance so close to Shama Lama Ding Dong
They’d scream Gabba Gabba Hey
I don’t understand
I don’t understand
Why they don’t understand when I go
Yeah Yeah, Oh Yeah Yeah
I remember that summer
I saved up every dime
And I walked to the counter
Slapped down my dollar
Pointed to a guitar
Said I believe that is mine
It was like for the first time
For the very first time
I could stand up tall
From now I’m gonna stand up tall
I’m a walking tall
And I’m a talking loud
And I’m a singing loud
I’m going GO-GO-GO-GO-GO
This album rocks. It is not as steady as his later records, but still worth listening to very much. We really enjoyed his songs at the Paradiso in Amsterdam yesterday. René van Dijk
The kind of album that accompanies any night out on the town, backyard BBQ, kitchen floor dance session, drunken stooper, next day hangover. Southern party rock and roll. Any fan of Lucero should eat this up! Bucky
