Lynyrd Skynyrd - Mean Streets lyrics

Raised up with two kinds of people

The good ones and the bad

I was taught from early on

The only choice I had

Now I see, it's clear to me

What was in the plan

Had to walk the walk and talk the talk

And try to be a man

I swear the wind took me away

But now I'm here again today, yeah

I'm back on the mean streets (back on the mean streets)

Oh, it's the only thing I know

Never change me (never change me)

It was born in my soul

And it don't take much to make me mad

Push me a little and I bring back

I've a mean streak, ohh

Yeah, I'm back on the mean streets

Somebody stole my money, I heard a brother say

Used to we'd fight it out, that was yesterday

Just cause you're packin' son, don't make you a man

If you shoot to kill, what's the thrill

Why don't you understand

Each time I walk outside my door

We need a change and that's for sure

Chorus

Do you ever think about where you're goin'

Have you ever thought about where you been

Will you ever pass this way again

There's a fear and you know it

But inside, you can't show it

No where for you to run and hide

Chorus

Yeah, I'm back on the mean streets baby

I'm back on the mean streets

I'm back on the mean streets

Mean streets

It don't take much to take me back
