You Can`t Make The Grade lyrics
Well, your woman's actin' funny
When you start to gettin' old
This
is a story
Never been told
Too late, old man
Yo' debts
have been paid
Yes, your race is done ruined
Man, you can't make the
grade
She works like an ox
Come home tired as a mule
When you get sixty years old
Befo' you know you's a fool
Too late, old man
Yo' debts have been paid
Yes, your race is done
ruined
Man, you can't make the grade
At midnight she shake
you
She knows that's a joke
She know it will be early in the
mo'nin
Befo' she get you woke
Too late, old man
Yo'
debts have been paid
Yes, your race is done ruined
Man, you can't
make the grade
'Alrighty now, I'm up, play one'
(instrumental & sax)
'Yes, yas'
On Monday, you feel
like playin'
She says she don't like yo' game
Tuesday, come
It's about the same
Wednesday, she 'cussed you of
Some
other chick
Thursday, when you touch her
She says she's sick
Friday, come
She kiss you on yo' cheek
She know you should
have enough money
To last her all the week
Too late, old
man
Yo' debts have been paid
Yes, your race is done ruined
Man, you can't make the grade.
