Little Brother Songtext

von Hootie & The Blowfish

How you gonna say what you can and can't do
Sittin' in the crib, parked infront of the tube,
You're mad at the world, like she owe you
What you think, opportunity's gonna come lookin' for you
Not a damn thing changed
You're just another football waiting to be tossed in the game
Your flossing again, you talk a good game,
But you're still trying hard to maintain

Chorus: Little brother
A ship can't sail without the water
The world could be yours if you want her
But you gotta be willing to go out and get it,
When you get it, keep winning

Everyday you're out slinging that thing
No worries or cares of what your mama may say
Tryin to get what you want in your life
The cars, the clothes, the ho's, the ice
Not a damn thing changed,
You're still another football waiting to be tossed in the game
You're flossing again
You talk a good game
But your still strugglin' hard to maintain

Chorus

Everything you want could be yours if you were just to try
All the troubles that you feel will fade away
Like shooting stars across the sky
All the dreams that I hope you feel
Soon someday shall be fulfilled
Time is moving rapidly
Don't let it pass you by

Chorus

Back in the days our parents used to take care of us
Look at 'em now
They even look scared of us

Chorus
