The Foot Race Is On


What you look at me for? Look out man,
What's the matter with you, I fixin to, whooo
That man gonna jump on me,
And I just got to move on out of his way,
That's all there is to it
But, I'm goin
Tell me, baby, what you tryin to do?
Tryin to mistreat me and I ain't done nothin to you
Mama told me now understand,
Just keep a-truckin like a man
I'm gone, sure gone
I ain't jokin, no time waitin on
Just keep on goin
Look it here, baby, what you tryin to do?
Tryin to love me and my brother too
Mama told me now understand,
Sit and listen with a plate in her hand
I know, gotta go
Gotta go, pretty baby,
God knows I ain't lyin
See, that's when it's gettin soft,
See, I was gettin tired,
And I just slowed down a little bit
Foot race is on though
Looka yonder what I do see,
Whole lotta somethin comin after me,
But, I'm gone,
They'll have a hard time catchin ole Lightnin,
Now that I got a little air
Feel a little better now
Keep on runnin
You know they run me, edge of town,
They got tired and they turned around
I sure felt good, I didn't have to run no more
I ain't jokin, I ain't jivin,
God knows I ain't carryin on
