So sly, the way younmove,nLike a hungry catnprowling underneathnthe moon,nSo I must chase thengame,nThrough the jungle ofnconfusion one morenday.nnBig Daddy, he runs thisntown,nUses guns and pillsnand powders just tonkeep us down,nBut I won't make thatndeal,nGot a mind full ofnmuscle and a heart ofnrailroad steel.nnSix is nine,nBlack is white,nWalking through thennight of strangendelight,nOne step over the line.nnOperator, get menhigher ground,nIn muddy water and Infear that I mightndrown,nThere's a wind a-nblowing, fit to blownme clean away,nAnd the night's sonwounded, keepsnbleeding into the day.nnSix is nine,nBlack is white,nWalking through thennight of strangendelight,nOne step over the line.nnBig Mama, you run thisntown,nI give you long-neckednbottles and you turnn'em upside down,nBut I'm gonna makenyour deal,nGot a mind full ofnmuscle and a heart ofnrailroad steel.nnSix is nine,nBlack is white,nWalking through thennight of strangendelight,nOne step over the line.
