How's it feel to be so black?
How's it feel to be so white?
How's it feel to worry 'bout things
And never, never know
Who's wrong or right

Looking at things
On the other side
Have you got everything
Or only your pride

(Back off, brother)
Live and let live
Just like any other
(Back off, brother)
'Cause I don't
Owe you nothing
And I don't want
Nothing from you

Mister preacher man
He act so good
Mm, says he don't
But I know he would
Stick his head up
The hole of love
And forget all about
The lord above

Looking at things
On the other side
Flames of hell gonna
Burn his hide

(Back off, brother)
Live and let live
Just like any other
(Back off, brother)
'Cause I don't
Owe you nothing
And I don't want
Nothing from you

Woo
Bring it on, baby
Ha, ha

One monkey don't stop
No show, now
Woo
Listen up

(Back off)
The committee wants
To rate my song
(Back off)
Woo, they won't leave
Well enough alone
(Back off)
Mm, but my time will come
And theirs will pass
(Back off)
Ha, ha, uncle sam
Kiss my ass

(Back off, brother)
Why don't you live and let live
Just like any other
(Back off, brother)
Oh, 'cause I don't
Owe you nothing
And I don't want nothin'
From you
(Back off, brother)
Why don't you live and let live
Just like any other
(Back off, brother)
I said I don't owe you nothin'
(Back off, brother)
Yeah
(Back off, brother)
Ooh, I'm talking to you
(Back off, brother)
Let me hear you sing it
(Back off, brother)
I said I don't owe you nothin'

(Back off, brother)
Let me hear you sing it
(Back off, brother)
Mm, yeah
(Back off, brother)
Don't owe you nothin', baby
(Back off, brother)
Woo

Yeah, one monkey don't stop no show
